As manufacturing processes become increasingly complex, industry
must rely on advanced sensor technology and process control to
improve efficiency and product quality. Processes now need a
variety of on-line measurements, such as film thickness, particle
size, solids concentrations, and contamination detection.
Industrial Process Sensors provides a coherent review of the
physical principles, design, and implementation of a wide variety
of in-process sensors used to control manufacturing operations.
Real data from commercial installations illustrates the operation
and limitations of these devices.
The book begins with a review of the basic physics of sound,
light, electricity, and radiation, with a focus on their role in
sensor devices. The author introduces the generic sensor model and
discusses the propagation of measurement errors. He goes on to
describe conventional process sensors that measure temperature,
pressure, level, and flow. The second half of the book focuses on
more advanced topics, such as particle size measurement in slurries
and emulsions, tomography and process imaging of manufacturing
operations, on-line measurement of film thickness, identification
of polymer type for recycling, and characterization of reinforced
polymers and composites.
By exploring both theory and final implementation of sensors
used to control industrial manufacturing processes, Industrial
Process Sensors provides the information you need to develop
solutions to a wide range of industrial measurement needs.
