Flow Rate Measurement in Microfluidics Using Optical Sensors
A system using low-cost and off-the-shelf electronic components for measuring very low flow rates of liquids is reported. The system records the time duration a liquid column needs to travel, in a transparent capillary, between two optical sensors. The average flow rate is then calculated from the time duration, the distance of the two sensors, and the diameter of the capillary. Our first proto...
متن کاملWeight Measurements by Using Simple Optical-Fiber Sensors (RESEARCH NOTE)
The use of different optical-fiber sensors for weighing measurements is Abstract described. By using three different mechanical stressing mechanisms, the operation of the fiber-to-fiber transducer systems are tested and the results are presented. Parameters such as sensitivity, hysteresis, resolution, and dynamic range are measured. A comparison of the results has shown that the sensor system m...

and 10% in corn (Hilton et al., 1994). Fertilizer N losses due to surface runoff range between 1 and 13% In 2001, N fertilizer prices nearly doubled as a result of increased (Blevins et al., 1996; Chichester and Richardson, 1992). natural gas prices. This was further troubling when considering that the world N use efficiency (NUE) in cereal grain production averages Urea fertilizers applied to ...
متن کاملUsing Optical Sensors to Identify Water Deprivation, Nitrogen Shortage, Weed Presence and Fungal Infection in Wheat
The success of precision agriculture relies largely on our ability to identify how the plants’ growth limiting factors vary in time and space. In the field, several stress factors may occur simultaneously, and it is thus crucial to be able to identify the key limitation, in order to decide upon the correct contra-action, e.g., herbicide application. We performed a pot experiment, in which sprin...
