The ‘Portable Rheology and Temperature Sensor’ (PoRTS) can measure temperature, density and viscosity simultaneously
Researchers at IIT Madras have developed a sensor that can measure three parameters that are crucial in many industrial processes temperature, density and viscosity. The ‘Portable Rheology and Temperature Sensor’ (PoRTS) can measure all three parameters simultaneously. At present, most industries use three different sensors, which increases inefficiency. Prof Krishnan Balasubramaniam, Head of the Centre for Nondestructive Evaluation, says: “The challenge is finding sensors to measure these properties on an industrial scale. When glass is heated at 800°C, polymers at 200°C, aluminium at 500°C, or steel at 1,400°C, how do I measure the temperature, density and viscosity at a single or multiple location using a single sensor? That is the problem our researchers set out to solve.” Manufacturing processes, such as glass, have solid-to-liquid transitions,
EngD and PhD Studentships: Centre for Doctoral Training in Future Innovation in Non-Destructive evaluation (FIND-CDT)
The Centre for Doctoral Training in Future Innovation in Non-Destructive evaluation (FIND) is a partnership between a group of leading universities (Bristol, Imperial College London, Manchester, Nottingham, Strathclyde or Warwick) offering a 4-year industrially-linked doctoral training programme designed to launch you into an engineering career. The CDT has close links to the UK’s internationally leading Research Centre for Non-Destructive Evaluation (RCNDE) with a vibrant network of more than 250 researchers across a range of disciplines.
What is NDE?
Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) is likely the most important discipline you have not heard of, planes would not fly and power stations would not generate power without it. It employs sensor and imaging technology to assess the condition of components, plant and engineering structures of all kinds during manufactur
