Abstract:
A method and system of monitoring fluid flow in a wellbore ( 16 ). One or more space-distributed temperature input pulses ( 6 a,b;  6′; 6 ″) are induced into at least a portion of the fluid in a housing ( 15; 15 a,b;  15′; 15 ″) in the wellbore, The housing has at least one cavity ( 14; 14 a,b ) and one or more flow ports ( 4; 4′. 5; 5′; 5 a′,b ′). A temperature response pulse, caused by said temperature input pulses, are sensed at one or more locations ( 2 ) downstream of said cavity ( 14; 14 a,b ) and a flow rate of said fluid through said cavity ( 14 ) is determined. The flow rate may be determined based on one or more characteristics of said temperature response pulse, and the Retention Time Distribution (RTD) of said cavity.

Claim (Index 30):
The system of any one of  claims 21 - 29 , wherein said sensor comprises real-time downstream sensors for other parameters (such as salinity).
