MEASUREMENTAND INSTRUMENTATION

Abstract

This handbook, designed for third-year energy engineering students, offers a detailed overview of measurement techniques. It covers thickness and length measurements using mechanical tools like rulers, Vernier calipers, and micrometers, alongside explanations of their components and usage. Temperature measurement techniques, including thermocouples, thermistors, and infrared detectors, are addressed with practical applications and error analysis, emphasizing automation systems like Arduino Uno. Additionally, it explores flow, velocity, and pressure measurements using flowmeters, Pitot tubes, and piezoelectric sensors, focusing on their principles and practical uses. The handbook aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed for accurate measurements and the application of theoretical concepts in engineering and industrial fields.
