Determination of the conductivity of non-metallic powder materials by the eddy current method

Анотація

A theoretical analysis of the interaction of the eddy current sensor field with powder particles makes it possible to calculate the particle conductivity using the measured value of the sensor added active resistance. Relative to its own reactance, the value of this resistance is proportional to powder density, frequency of the probing field, electrical conductivity of particles and square of their diameter. Particles of spherical shape and cylindrical shape, the height of which is equal to the diameter of the base, are considered. The analysis allows to explain the experimentally observed different character of the resistance frequency dependences for powder and corresponding solid material when measuring by the same sensor.
