Læringsmål

Learn basic knowledge about process monitoring systems based on sensor devices and interconnection of sub devices. Understand different sensor measurement principles, conversion of analog values to digital representations, and sensor device specifications.

Innhold

The course gives an introduction for planning and documenting experiments, an overview of devices and modules used in a process monitoring systems, the meaning of different sensor device properties, and sensor measurements principles. The overview of monitoring systems includes signal condition, DAQ systems, discrete sampling, statistical analysis, basic sensor data fusion and calibration. The sensor measurements includes principles for electrical, magnetic, capacitive and solid mechanical quantities, pressure, temperature, light, flow, level, interface and density.
