    Understanding Electrical Impedance for Calibrating Sensors

    All that matters is to match the 'electrical' numbers to the measured dimensions via the graph / lookup table that your calibrated discs will give you. It is essential, in any case, to use the same disc materials for calibrations and measurements. There exist methods for doing the...

    Understanding Electrical Impedance for Calibrating Sensors

    Please read page 1 and 2 in the attachments. My first part of testing is to calibrate an inductive sensor like shown in page 2. The calibrating part is where testing it on metal sheets and measuring the change in the impedance of the coil comes in etc, after doing this i will test it on brake...

    Understanding Electrical Impedance for Calibrating Sensors

    Do you know how to work out the inductance of a metal plate/sheet ?

    Understanding Electrical Impedance for Calibrating Sensors

    thank you so much for the reply yeah sorry that's what i meant. I was really struggling with understanding the impedance part of it but now after reading your reply it makes a lot of sense. but just to make it more clear, say I am measuring the thickness of a steel plate with my inductive...

    Understanding Electrical Impedance for Calibrating Sensors

    i am a 3rd year Mech batch doing my dissertation on developing an inductive sensor to determine wear in brake discs. As you know it works by inducing eddy currents into the disc and the are monitored by measuring the impedance of the coil. i am really struggling with understanding the impedance...
