They are in phones, cars, planes, trains, robots, mils, lathes, packaging lines, chemical plants, power plants, etc. Modern technology could not exist without sensors. The sensors measure what we need to know and the control system then performs the desired actions. When an engineer builds any machine he or she needs to have basic understanding about sensors. Correct sensors need to be selected for the design right from the start. The designer needs to think about the ranges, required accuracy, sensor cost, wiring, correct installation and placement etc. Without the basic knowledge of sensors fundamental no machine can be built successfully today.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe objective of this book is to provide the basic knowledge to electrical and mechanical engineers, engineering students and hobbyist from the field of sensors to help them with the selection of \"proper\" sensors for their designs. No background knowledge in electrical engineering is required, all the necessary basics are provided. The book explains how a sensor works, in what ranges it can be used, with what accuracy etc. It also provides examples of industrial application for selected sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book covers all the major variables in mechanical engineering such as temperature, force, torque, pressure, humidity, position, speed, acceleration etc.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe approach is always as follows: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Explain how the sensor works, what is the principle\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Explain in what ranges and with what accuracy it can work\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Describe its properties with charts, eventually equations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Give examples of such sensors including application examples\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Nov疚\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367534010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367534011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Martin Nov疚","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43982165180671,"sku":"9780367534011","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_393c3b6e-b25c-42bf-9b89-3ea975dae8f3.jpg?v=1683259602","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/introduction-to-sensors-for-electrical-martin-nov-k-9780367534011","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
