An electrodynamic sensor for electrostatic charge measurement
نویسندگان
چکیده
Electrodynamic sensors are used in the process industry because they are low cost and robust. Though frequently used very little fundamental work on them has been reported. This paper describes an investigation into characteristics of hemispherically and rectangularly shaped sensors. Two parameters are investigated, the effect of sensor area on sensitivity and the spatial filtering effect of the sensor due to its finite size. Models are proposed and results obtained using them compared with experimental values.

Sensing and filtering characteristics of electrostatic sensors for pneumatically conveyed particles
Electrostatic sensor, which can also be called as triboelectric sensor or electrodynamic sensor, senses the electrostatic charge carried by the dry particle in pneumatic conveyor. Source of the signal induced on the electrostatic sensor is brought by the object to be measured and no excitation circuit is necessary. Electrostatic sensors are used in the process industry due their low cost and ro...

متن کاملNew Approach to Touch Sensing Technique Based on Measurement of Current Generated by Electrostatic Induction
In this study, we propose a new concept for touch sensors based on the measurement of current generated by electrostatic induction. The proposed sensor can detect the timing of contact between two objects under perfect noncontact condition. When a human body comes in contact with an object, electrostatic charge is generated in the human body due to the tribological interaction. We assume that t...
