How do natural frequency sensors measure solid and vessel frequency?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around devices that measure the natural frequency of solids and vessels, particularly in the context of liquid levels changing within a tank. Participants explore various methods and devices for sensing these frequency changes.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant inquires about devices that can measure the natural frequency of solids and vessels.
  • Another participant suggests that a microphone can be used as a device for this purpose.
  • A follow-up post clarifies that the focus is on measuring changes in natural frequency due to varying liquid levels in a tank.
  • A question is raised regarding the method of exciting the vibration of the tank to facilitate measurement.
  • It is reiterated that the changes in natural frequency are due to the changing liquid levels within the vessel.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants have not reached a consensus on specific devices or methods for measuring natural frequency changes in vessels, and there are questions about the excitation of vibrations.

Contextual Notes

The discussion does not specify the assumptions regarding the types of tanks or liquids involved, nor does it detail the mathematical or physical principles underlying the measurement techniques.

Hi all !

i want to know some of the devices that measure natural frequency of solids/vessels, etc !

with regards!
take care !
 
Physics news on Phys.org
A microphone is such a device.
 
Thanks for reply !
actually there is any liquid in tank..when liquid level rises or falls, natural frequency of that tank changes..i wana know devices to sense these changes !
 
How are you going to excite the vibration of the tank?
 
because liquid level is changing in a vessel.
