Consider the following transducers: 1. LVDT 2. Piezoelectric 3. Thermocouple 4. Photovoltaic cell 5. Strain gauge Which of these are active transducers? Correct Answer 2, 3 and 4

Thermocouple and Thermistor are examples of the active transducer and passive transducer respectively.

Transducer:

A transducer is an electronic device that converts energy from one form to another. Common examples include microphones, loudspeakers, thermometers, i.e.

 

Additional Information

Analog transducers:

  • These transducers convert the input quantity into an analog output which is a continuous function of time
  • Thus, a strain gauge, an L.V.D.T., a thermocouple, or a thermistor may be called Analog Transducers as they give an output that is a continuous function of time

Digital Transducers:

  • These transducers convert the input quantity into an electrical output which is in the form of pulses and its, output is represented by 0 and 1

A thermocouple junction in the form of 4 mm radius sphere is to be used to measure the temperature of a gas stream. The junction is initially at 35 degree Celsius and is placed in a gas stream which is at 300 degree Celsius. The thermocouple is removed from the hot gas stream after 10 seconds and kept in still air at 25 degree Celsius with convective coefficient 10 W/m2 K. Find out the time constant of the thermocouple.
