Development of an electromagnetic device for studying the electrophysical properties of agricultural products

Abstract

The problem of control and quality of agricultural products is relevant for agro-industrial production. To determine the quality indicators, for example, milk, various indirect methods are used, but they are complex, some require special preliminary preparation of the sample. We need methods that will meet the following requirements: simplicity, speed and mobility. The identification of the electrophysical properties of biological objects can become the basis for the development of an electromagnetic method that will meet the above conditions. The article considers processes based on a change in the voltage (output signal) of a parallel oscillatory circuit in which an inductive cell contains the studied agricultural products. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in developing a device for determining the electrophysical properties of biological objects, analyzing the results of the study, obtaining the dependences of the output signal of the resonant amplifier on the frequency of the generator. (Materials and methods) The article presents studies of the resonant processes occurring in the simplest parallel oscillatory LC circuit. The article analyses the effect on the output parameters of a parallel oscillatory LC circuit when its inductance changes by placing various substances in an inductive coil. (Results and discussion) The article presents a block diagram of an electromagnetic device for determining and studying the electrophysical properties of biological objects. The block diagram is implemented directly into an electromagnetic device. Authors created a program in the MATLAB package for processing the experimental data. Based on the results of processing, authors got frequency dependencies for various biological objects of agriculture. (Conclusions) The processing of an array of experimental data will allow us to determine the functional, statistical and logical dependencies between the output and input values of the presented device.
