Aims :

The course provides the knowledge relative to measuring instrumentation for industrial application. The elements for understanding of measurement processes, interactions between measurement systems and measurement objects, principles of sensors and transducers, laboratory and on-line applications will be given.

Topics :

The course presents the basic knowledge of mechanical and thermal measurements and testing methodologies. The measurement principles of the quantities of interest for industrial applications are shown through theoretical lectures, laboratory experiences and practical examples.
General concepts on measurement systems and procedures. Instrument utilization in industrial application and on-line testing. Static and dynamic calibration. Elements of signal analysis and digital data processing.
Traditional and innovative systems for the measurement of: dimension, displacement, strain, velocity of solids (translation, rotation), velocity of fluids, acceleration, force, torque, power, pressure, flow rate, temperature, heat flows.
