Transducer

By Ashik
 A transducer is defined as a device that receives energy
from one system and transmits it to another, often in a
different form (electrical,mechanical or acoustical). d e e o (e ec ca , ec a ca o acous ca )
„ Basically, there are two types of transducers :
1) Electrical
2) Mechanical
„ The electrical output of a transducer depends on the basic principle involved in the design.
„ The output may be analog, digital, or frequency modulated


 Electrical Transducer
„ An electrical transducer is a device that converts a physical, mechanical or optical quantity into a proportional voltage or current quantity.„
 An electrical transducer must have the following parameters :
1) Linearity
• Linear relationship between a physical parameter and the
resulting electrical signal.
2) Sensitivity
• Defined as the electrical output per unit change in the physical parameter (eg V/0C)
• High sensitivity is desirable

3 ) Dynamic Range
• Transducer must have a wide operating range.
4) Repeatability
• The input/output relationship for a transducer should be predictable over a long period of time.
5) Physical Size
• The transducer must have minimal weight and volume to minimize the disturbance to the existing conditions/environment.

Armature Winding ,Pole Pitch, Coil Span, Commutator Pitch

By Ashik
Now we are going to discuss about armature winding in details. Before going through this section, we should understand some basic terms related to armature winding of dc generator . Pole Pitch Definition of Pole Pitch The pole pitch is defined as peripheral distance between center of two adjacent poles in dc machine. This distance is measured in term of armature slots or armature conductor come between two adjacent pole centers. This is naturally equal to the total number of armature slots divided by number of poles in the machine. If there are 96 slots on the armature periphery and 4 numbers of poles in the machine, the numbers of armature slots come between two adjacent poles centers would be 96/4 = 24. Hence, the pole pitch of that dc machine would be 24. As it is seen that, pole pitch is equal to total numbers of armature slots divided by total numbers of poles, this can alternatively referred as armature slots per pole . Coil Span or Coil Pitch Coil of ...

Control Systems/Gain

By Ashik
What is Gain? Gain is a proportional value that shows the relationship between the magnitude of the input to the magnitude of the output signal at steady state. Many systems contain a method by which the gain can be altered, providing more or less "power" to the system. However, increasing gain or decreasing gain beyond a particular safety zone can cause the system to become unstable. Consider the given second-order system: We can include an arbitrary gain term, K in this system that will represent an amplification, or a power increase: In a state-space system, the gain term k can be inserted as follows: The gain term can also be inserted into other places in the system, and in those cases the equations will be slightly different.   Example: Gain Here are some good examples of arbitrary gain values being used in physical systems: Volume Knob On your stereo there is a volume knob that controls the gain of your amplifier circuit. Higher levels of v...
