Synopsis
Sensors is worldwide the first series to meet the varying needs of the sensor community. Comprehensive in scope, it covers fundamentals and general aspects of sensors; mechanical sensors; thermal sensors; magnetic sensors; optical sensors; chemical sensors and biochemical sensors. Both specialists and newcomers will find this compact and closed-end series easy to use. Moreover, researchers and developers can access the volumes according to physical and technical fundamentals, and since each volume contains comparisons and assessments of the various types of sensors with respect to their applications, sensor users will also benefit from the series.
Présentation de l'éditeur
′Sensors′ is the first self–contained series to deal with the whole area of sensors. It describes general aspects, technical and physical fundamentals, construction, function, applications and developments of the various types of sensors.
This volume describes the construction and applicational aspects of thermal sensors while presenting a rigorous treatment of the underlying physical principles. It provides a unique overview of the various categories of sensors as well as of specific groups, e.g. temperature sensors (resistance thermometers, thermocouples, and radiation thermometers), noise and acoustic thermometers, heat–flow and mass–flow sensors. Specific facettes of applications are presented by specialists from different fields including process control, automotive technology and cryogenics. This volume is an indispensable reference work and text book for both specialists and newcomers, researchers and developers.
