Summary: | Electrostatic sensors have a simple but robust structure, which can detect the electric charge from moving charged particles. Measurement of the dry particle mass flow rate, velocity, and concentration in a conveyor are the main areas of sensor application. This paper considers the measurement methods and techniques that utilize electrostatic sensors for instrumentation. The most significant applications of the sensor are reviewed and a newly developed technique in particle sizing using the spatial filtering method is explained. The results of the study re-emphasize the flexibility, reliability and cost-effective features of the electrostatic sensor for industrial applications. |
