What is conductivity? How it measure?

 Conductivity

Conductivity is a ability of material (solid,liquid or gas) to pass electricity through it.

Conductivity measurement required for,


  1. Quality control of drinking or process water
  2. Quality control of boiler feed water
  3. Estimation of total number of iron in a solution

Conductivity of a solution depend upon the following factor.

  1. Concentration of the solution
  2. Mobility of  iron
  3. Valence of ions
  4. Temperature of the solution
The conductance of the solution can be expressed as the,

L=σA/d           

L=conductance
A=Area of the electrode
d=distance between two electrodes
σ=conductivity of the solution

The ratio d/a is called  cell constant)θ  and conductivity expresses

σ=θ L        


Unit of conductivity

Siemens/centimetre is the unit of the conductivity.

Conductivity cells

  1. Two pole type
  2. Four pole type

Wire wound strain gauge

Wirewound strain gauge There are two types of wirewound strain gauge  bonded and unbonded. Bonded strain gauge It consists of specimen surface  Gauge is directly bonded with the surface of the specimen  surface being tested. The thin layer of adhesive cement is also there this cement is  not only serve to transmit the strain from the specimen to the gauge wire but also act as an insulator. Depending upon the application the bonded strain gauge have various structure so we can use this structure as our application. Unbonded strain gauge These strain gauges are not directly bonded onto the surface of the structure under study. Hence they are termed as unbounded strain gauges. Description of the Unbonded Strain gauges: The arrangement of an unbonded strain gauges consists of the following. Two frames P and Q carrying rigidly fixed insulated pins as shown in diagram. these two frames can move relative with respect to each other and they are ...

Foil type strain gauge

Foil type strain gauge In Foil type strain gauge we use thin sheets or foils of 5 micro metre thick. by photo etching or masked vacuum deposition process , based on our requirement or application we can shaped the strain gauge. The end turns are made fat so as to reduce the contribution from the transverse strain which is a superiors input. Metal Foil Strain Gauge The arrangement consists of the following; The metal foil of 0.02mm thick is produced using the printed circuit technique. This metal foil is produced on one side of the plastic backing. Leads are soldered to the metal foil for electrically connecting the strain gauge to a measuring instrument (wheat stone bridge). Operations of Metal foil Strain gauge With the help of an adhesive material, the strain gauge is pasted/bonded on the structure under study. Now the structure is subjected to a force (tensile or compressive). Due to the force, the structure will change the dimension. As the strain gauge is bonded to the structure, ...

Do an ALP to compare two eight bit numbers NUM1 and NUM2 stored in external memory locations 8000h and 8001h respectively. Reflect your result as: If NUM1NUM2, SET MSB of location 2FH (bit address 7FH). If NUM1 = NUM2, then Clear both LSB & MSB of bit addressable memory location 2FH.
