What I learned after mid-term week 5
Level measurement
Capacitance
Principle
Measure electrical capacitance of a conductive rod
As process level increase, capacitance increases between the rod and the vessel walls
For liquid
Conductive
Nonconductive
Applications & Limitations
Quick response speed and can measure variety of media
Only works witha ground reference point
Unaffected by emulsion or rag layers
Analytical instrument
Humidity measurement
Electronic hygrometer
Principle
Measure electrical resistance or capacitance that affected by the moisture
Types
Capacitive
Measure RH from 0-100%
Resistive
Measure RH below 5%
Chilled-mirror dewpoint hygrometer
Used to determine the dewpoint temperature
Hair hygrometer & hair hygrograph
Principle
Measure the change of length of certain organic or synthetic fiber when these are exposed to a moist atmosphere
Lithium chloride dewpoint hygrometer (Dewcel)
Used to determine the dewpoint temperature
Psychrometer
Principle
Measure the difference of temperature between wet and dry bulbs
Types
Sling Psychrometer
Aspirating Psychrometer
Viscosity measurement
Efflux cup viscometers (Saybolt viscometer)
Principle
Count the time that fluid uses for moving through another container for entire volume of fluid
For viscous solution
Types of orifice
Furol
Road-oil
Universal
Falling ball viscometers
Principle
Timing of the ball through the accurately calibrated distance between two marks on the glass tube
For high viscosity fluid
Capillary viscometer
Principle
Count the time that fluid uses for moving through two points
Measure absolute viscosity
Types
Cannon-Fenske Routine
Ubbelohde
Reverse Flow Viscometers
Dilution Viscometers
Vacuum Viscometers
For dilute solution
Rotational viscometers
Principle
Measure the torque required to
rotate a spindle immersed in a sample liquid
Spindle geometries
Cone
Vane
T-bar
Spiral
Cylindrical
Disc
pH measurement
Potentiometric
Electrochemical pH measurement
Principle
Nernst equation
The electrical potential created by ions migrating through a permeable membrane causes the difference of voltage between measurement and reference electrodes
Colorimetric pH measurement
Principle
Measure the pH of a solution by color
