Reviewer 2 Report

In this study, the authors proposed a method for concentration detection by differential pressure based on turbulence elimination to improve the reliability of concentration detection results. The simulation modelling was carried out using Fluent software and the results obtained were also compared with experimentation. The results are well presented and discussed. The assumptions made along with the selected boundary conditions for the simulation of the fluid flow are acceptable. Overall, the manuscript is concise and well written. Below are some minor  comments for the consideration of the authors:

1) In Table 1, any reason for selecting the minimum angle for the inlet as 30 deg?

2) Lines 180 and 187, did the authors compare the turbulence intensity  using a higher TES length above 150 mm?

3) Line 257, any reason why the variations in detection error for low-density liquid are found to be greater than the high-density liquid?

4) Line 259, referring to Fig. 11, there is a steep change in the error for the lower density fluids (1.0 and 1.3) if compared to the high-density fluid (1.7) between 0.8 and 0.9 m/s. Why is this the case?
