  • Anotace:
    We describe D-permeameter originally designed by Trnka and later improved by Fajt and Kaspar and we analyze its precision for the measurement of different soft magnetic materials. The device measures DC hysteresis loops using compensation method, so that H and B can be calculated from the magnetization and compensation currents. The differences from results obtained by other standard methods are below 2%.

Elektrická měření - Přístroje a metody

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    Stejně jako původní vydání knihy Elektrická měření – přístroje a metody z roku 2003 i toto shrnuje informace týkající se oblasti elektrických a magnetických měření na úrovni absolventa inženýrského studia elektrotechnických oborů. Vzhledem k prudkému rozvoji elektroniky a číslicové techniky však byla náplň většiny kapitol značně modernizována popř. rozšířena a část věnovaná analogovým přístrojům naopak významně zredukována. V publikaci jsou vysvětleny základní principy používané v současné době pro měření elektrických popř. magnetických veličin a principy nejčastěji používaných metod pro měření ostatních fyzikálních veličin s mezipřevodem na elektrický signál. Jsou popsány též běžně používané měřicí přístroje a principy jejich činnosti, s čímž samozřejmě souvisí i jejich vlastnosti. Vzhledem k tomu, že jejich základním blokem jsou analogově-číslicové popř. číslicově-analogové převodníky, je samostatná kapitola věnována i digitalizaci signálu. Problematika určování nejistot měření je klíčovým parametrem při řízení a kontrole kvality výroby. Nejistotám měření je proto věnována nejen celá 1. kapitola, ale odhad nejistot je také zmíněn i v kapitolách věnovaným metodám měření aktivních elektrických veličina parametrů pasivních součástek.

  • Anotace:
    In this paper, experimental works and theoretical analysis are presented to analyze the influence of the conductor permeability on the precision of yokeless current sensors. The results of finite-element method (FEM) fit well the measured field values around the conductor. Finally we evaluate the difference in magnetic fields distribution around non-magnetic and magnetic conductor. The calculated values show that the permeability of the ferromagnetic conductor significally affects the reading of the electric current sensors even at DC.

    This article deals with wide frequency range behaviour of DC tolerant current transformers that are usually used in modern static energy meters. In this application current transformers must comply with European and International Standards in their accuracy and DC tolerance. Therefore, the linear DC tolerant current transformers and double core current transformers are used in this field. More details about the problems of these particular types of transformers can be found in our previous works. Although these transformers are designed mainly for power distribution network frequency (50/60 Hz), it can be interesting to understand their behaviour in wider frequency range. Based on this knowledge the new generations of energy meters with measuring quality of electric energy will be produced. This solution brings better measurement of consumption of nonlinear loads or measurement of non-sinusoidal voltage and current sources such as solar cells or fuel cells. The determination of actual power consumption in such energy meters is done using particular harmonics component of current and voltage. We measured the phase and ratio errors that are the most important parameters of current transformers, to characterize several samples of current transformers of both types.

    The research and utilization of the magnetic nanoparticles in, e.g., biology and medicine have been preferentially oriented on magnetite Fe3O4 and maghemite γ-Fe2O3. The complex oxides allow a better control of the magnetic properties in a desirable way. We demonstrate this approach on an example of the La1-xSrxMnO3 perovskites from the point of view of their use in self-controlled magnetic fluid hyperthermia and increase of contrast in magnetic resonance imaging. With materials possessing suitable values of transition temperature TC, coercivity and magnetization, the heating power generated by the nanoparticles was estimated by two independent methods and they were finally employed in vitro and in vivo hyperthermia experiments.

Effect of Half-wave Rectified Current on Readout of Energy Meter

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    Paper deals with effect of half-wave rectified current on the measurement in energy meter. This type of current can be normally present in distribution network and does not cause any problem in active energy consumption measurement. On the other hand it can be the cause of saturation of the high permeability core of dual core current transformers. Moreover half-wave rectified current brings the increasing of the reactive power and consequently also the apparent power. It causes rising of losses in the conductors. The simple energy meter, eg electromechanical, does not measure these values and the losses are hidden. In present day there are many problems with capacity of energetic distribution network. Therefore information about character of energy consumption can be very important.

    Hybrid nanoparticles consisting of La0.75Sr0.25MnO3 cores covered by silica were synthesized by a procedure consisting of several steps, including sol-gel method in the presence of citric acid and ethylene glycol, thermal and mechanical treatment, encapsulation employing tetraethoxysilane and final separation by the centrifugation in order to get a required size fraction. Morphological studies revealed well separated particles which form stable water suspension. Magnetic studies include magnetization measurements and investigation of the ferromagnetic - superparamagnetic - paramagnetic transition. Magnetic heating experiments in a "calorimetric mode" were used to determine heating efficiency of the particles in water suspension and further employed for biological studies of extracellular and intracellular effects analyzed by the tests of viability.

Weak Points of Current Sensors in Static Energy Meters

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    The energy meters with dual core current transformers, that measure energy consumption of inductive or capacitive load and DC magnetic flux is present in the core, measure with the errors up to few tens of percentage. It is due to saturation of high permeability and it causes the step change of phase displacement. This change in dependence on the distance between permanent magnet and current transformer can be up to tens of degrees. The article deals with these errors and shows them in dependence on the type of load.

  • Anotace:
    Current transformers can be very easily affected by dc component of measured current. The behavior of such transformers can be different in comparison with normal conditions. The errors of power measurements arise in order of units of percent and can be both positive and negative according to the type of load for some type of current transformers. The errors are mainly caused by change of phase shift between primary and secondary current. The source of the problem is dc magnetic flux in the ferromagnetic core of the current transformer. The presence of dc magnetic field in ferromagnetic core of current transformer can be, in some cases, detected by analyzing the frequency spectrum of current signal using a microcontroller, usually by measuring the second harmonic. According to these results the energy meter is able to decide about possibility of unauthorized current consumption.

  • Anotace:
    This article deals with dual core current transformers that are used in some modern static watt-hour meters where they should substitute the more expensive DC tolerant current transformer with linear hysteresis loop. It describes the problem of power consumption measurement on inductive or capacitive loads where some DC magnetic field is applied. In this case the core with high permeability is saturated and operating point is moved on hysteresis loop of low permeability core. Then additional errors occur and the sign of the error can be both positive and negative depending on load type. Dimension of errors can be in order from units up to tens of per cents and it relies on power factor and DC magnetic field. Explanation of this problem is described in the article as well as some results of measurements and comparison with theoretical computation.

  • Anotace:
    Manganese perovskite nanoparticles of the composition La0.75Sr0.25MnO3 uniformly coated with silica were prepared by encapsulation of the magnetic cores (mean crystallite size 24 nm) using tetraethoxysilane followed by fractionation. Resulting hybrid particles form a stable suspension in aqueous environmentat at physiological pH and posses a narrow hydrodynamic size distribution. Both calorimetric heating experiments and hysteresis loops in the alternating field revealed high specific power losses, further enhanced by the encapsulation procedure in the case of the coated particles. The corresponding results are discussed on the basis of complex characterization of the particles and especially detailed magnetic measurements. Moreover the Curie temperature (335 K) of the selected magnetic cores resolves the risk of local overheating during hyperthermia treatment.

Drawback of Using Double Core Current Transformers in Static Watt-hour Meters

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    The current transformers in modern static watt-hour meters have to fulfil the criteria according to international standards. The manufacturers of the transformers use various techniques to obtain high DC tolerance. Some of them use the cores with low permeability and narrow and almost linear BH loop. These transformers are quite expensive and therefore some manufacturers use the double cores made from high and low permeability material. But as was found these transformers could bring additional errors in special conditions. The paper describes these conditions and explains the problems.

The Phase Displacement of DC Tolerant Current Transformers under DC Biasing

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    The most of the electronic static energy meters employ current transformers for current sensing. The current transformer has to fulfil some requirements according to international standards. Accuracy, together with the immunity against the dc current, is one of the requirements. Therefore manufactures of energy meter use the dc tolerant current transformers with linear hysteresis loop. These types of sensors have constant parameters and behaviour in very wide range of dc biasing. Second type of current transformers employs two cores with different parameters. But the parameters and behaviour vary with dc biasing. This paper deals with the changes of phase error of current transformers under dc biasing and describes the consequences of these changes.

For this purpose we have chosen mutual induction principle between small implantable coils. Sensors have to fulfill many requirements including biocompatibility, mechanical and chemical durability and minimum power consumption. First successful in-vivo experiments were held with simple configuration of two implantable coils and an external electronics box.

    In the quest for suitable materials for hyperthermia we explored the preparation and properties of nanoparticles of Co ferrite. The material was produced by coprecipitation from water solution of Co and Fe chlorides and afterwards annealed at 400, 600 and 800 °C. The resulting particles were characterized by XRD, TEM, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and dc and ac magnetometry. The heating experiments in ac magnetic fields of various amplitudes were performed with diluted systems of particles suspended in agarose gel and the results were interpreted on the basis of the ac magnetic losses measured at various temperatures. The increase of magnetic losses and consequently of the heating efficiency with increasing temperature is explained by the strong dependence of the constant of magnetocrystalline anisotropy of Co ferrite on temperature.

  • Anotace:
    DC tolerant current transformers are used in modern electricity meters. This brings some advantages but at the same time increases ratio error and causes higher but almost constant phase displacement. Therefore it is important to measure both errors. The indirect method of these errors measurement the errors has been tested on a commercial DC tolerant current transformer with manufacturer declared errors and the calculated errors were in very good accord with the declared parameters. This way the verify of the indirect method was proven and it has been used for further measurements. The measurements have been done with four DC tolerant current transformers that use cores made by different manufacturers. This article describes the method of measurement and shows the results.

DC Tolerance of Current Transformers and its Measurement

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    Two main errors exist in the current transformers: the ratio error and the phase displacement. These errors indirectly depends on apparent permeability of the ferromagnetic core. Precise current transformers usually use a core with high apparent permeability which ensures small errors. But even a small DC component of the measured current causes saturation of the core and growing errors. Therefore the cores with low permeability, narrow and almost linear hysteresis loop are used in the current transformers in the modern energy meters. This paper examines DC tolerance and its influence on the errors of the current transformer and describes the method of its measuring.

Measurement of Ratio Error and Phase Displacement of Current Transformers

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    The current transformers are used in almost all energy meters. Therefore it is important to know about their ratio error and phase displacement. Two ways can be used for measurement both of the errors. The direct method consist in comparison of the measured current transformer with the standard current transformer. The indirect method uses a measurement of magnetizing current and computation the errors from its value. This article deals with the indirect method and its using with measurement on DC tolerant current transformers that are presently used in the energy meters.

Volume and Motility Sensing for Implantable Gastric Pacemaker

  • Pracoviště: Katedra měření
  • Anotace:
    On-demand gastric electrical stimulation has been proposed to save energy of the pacing implant. For the purpose of control enough information about movement and size of stomach has to be measured with minimum external parts. Higher long-term efficiency of the method is expected in addition to its formerly documented positive effects in obesity treatment. Magnetic induction principle was chosen to measure the elongation of gastric wall between attached coils. In vivo a simple two coil configuration has been successfully tested and satisfactory resolution in demanded bandwidth has been proved. Especially for experimental studies directional dependence may be compensated by multi-axial sensor.

Pro měření bylo použito umělé magnetické pole vytvořené pomocí Helmholtzovy cívky. Vztah mezi záznamem gravimetrů a magnetickým polem byl určen pro horizontální i vertikální složku vektoru magnetické indukce. Byly zjištěny rozdíly mezi citlivostí jednotlivých gravimetrů na změny magnetického pole a především u gravimetrů č. 137 byla prokázána výrazná závislost na magnetickém poli. Třicetinásobné snížení tohoto rušivého vlivu bylo dosaženo umístěním gravimetru do permalloyového válce NiFe 76. Průběh magnetického pole v gravimetrické laboratoři na GO Pecný byl zjištěn měřením pomocí tříosého magnetometru.
