Abstract. The paper describes technical in-process implementation of the electrical method to measure the electrical capacitance per unit length of a single core electric wire. The basic design values of the electro-capacitive measuring transducer are determined. The impact of changes in water conductivity on measurement results is analyzed. Techniques to offset from the impact of changes in water conductivity on the results of the electrical capacitance per unit length control based on indirect electrical conductivity measurement are considered. An appropriate correction of the conversion function is made.
Abstract. The paper presents technical implementation of the electricalcapacitive method to perform in-process measurement of the capacitance per unit length of a single-core electric wire. The design of the electrocapacitive measuring transducer is proposed. The block diagram of the device CAP-10 developed to implement the proposed method is presented. The appearance of the device CAP-10 is showed, and its operating principle is described. It is shown that the change in water conductivity has a significant impact of the measurement result of the wire capacitance per unit length. The techniques to offset from the impact of water conductivity variation on measurement results are proposed. The technique of the device CAP-10 initial adjustment is proposed. It provides the desired function of the output signal transformation. The technique of the "operating" adjustment to correct measurement results through systematic measurement error elimination is offered.
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. A great number of methods have been developed to monitor the state of the heart, each of which has its own advantages and limitations. One of the most promising method is surface mapping. To improve reliability and informativity of this method, researchers of Medical Engineering Laboratory of TPU developed nanosensors with unique metrological characteristics for non-invasive measurement of ECG signals of microvolt and nanovolt levels. The results of previous studies showed that metrological characteristics of the developed nanosensors significantly exceed those of conventional electrodes. Based on this, nanosensors used for surface ECG mapping will enable qualitative improvement of data obtained and diagnostic capabilities of this method.
