Resumo

The present report is concerned with the use of the cross correlation technique to measure delay time between two simulated signals displaced in time, in order to develop a cross correlator system that will be used to measure the rate flow in water and oil pipes in which the detection system is composed by two external radioactive sources and two gamma detectors of low activity located along the tube.
