Rationale:

Instrumentation engineers must be conversant with the details of measurement of process variables in industries. In any process industries, the major process variables involved are temperature, pressure, flow and level. This subject covers the detailed study of principle, construction, operation, advantages, limitations and applications of the various transducers used in process industries. It also helps the students to understand about the availability of various transducers by different principles to measure the same process variable. This subject gives an idea about the selection of transducers for a given process variable by analyzing the advantages and limitations of each transducer.

Objectives:

Completion of the following units of syllabus, the students must be able to

  • Know what is temperature and its unit.
  • Know the concepts of non-electrical methods of temperature measurements.
  • Know the concept of electrical methods of temperature measurements.
