The Working Principle, Classification and Application of Magnetoelectric Sensors
Magnetoelectric sensor is a kind of sensor that converts the change of magnetic field into electrical signal output. It is widely used in industrial automation, aerospace, medical equipment and other fields.
I. The Working Principle of Magnetoelectric Sensors
The working principle of magnetoelectric sensors is based on Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. When a conductor in a magnetic field undergoes relative motion, an induced electromotive force will be generated in the conductor. Magnetoelectric sensors utilize this principle to convert the change of magnetic field into electrical signal output.
Generation of magnetic field: The magnetic field of magnetoelectric sensors can be generated by permanent magnets, electromagnets or magnetostrictive materials.
Relative motion of the conductor: Relative motion between the conductor and the magnetic field is required to generate the induced electromotive force. This relative motion can be linear motion, rotational motion or vibration of the conductor.
Generation of induced electromotive force: When the conductor moves in the magnetic field, an induced electromotive force will be generated in the conductor. The magnitude of the induced electromotive force is proportional to the intensity of the magnetic field, the velocity of the conductor and the effective length of the conductor in the magnetic field.
Output of electrical signal: After processing such as amplification, filtering and analog-to-digital conversion of the induced electromotive force, an electrical signal output corresponding to the change of the magnetic field can be obtained.
II. Classification of Magnetoelectric Sensors
According to the generation method of the magnetic field and the relative motion mode of the conductor, magnetoelectric sensors can be classified into the following types:
Permanent magnet type magnetoelectric sensor: It utilizes the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet to generate the induced electromotive force through the relative motion of the conductor.
Electromagnetic type magnetoelectric sensor: It utilizes the magnetic field generated by the electromagnet to generate the induced electromotive force through the relative motion of the conductor.
Magnetostrictive type magnetoelectric sensor: It utilizes the deformation of the magnetostrictive material in the magnetic field to generate the induced electromotive force through the relative motion of the conductor.
Hall type magnetoelectric sensor: It utilizes the Hall effect to generate the electrical signal output through the change of the magnetic field.
Magnetoresistive type magnetoelectric sensor: It utilizes the magnetoresistive effect to generate the electrical signal output through the change of the magnetic field.
III. Performance Indicators of Magnetoelectric Sensors
The performance indicators of magnetoelectric sensors mainly include the following aspects:
Sensitivity: Sensitivity refers to the ratio of the electrical signal output of the sensor to the change of the input magnetic field. The higher the sensitivity, the more sensitive the sensor's response to the change of the magnetic field.
Linearity: Linearity refers to the linear relationship between the electrical signal output of the sensor and the change of the input magnetic field. The higher the linearity, the higher the measurement accuracy of the sensor.
Stability: Stability refers to the stability of the electrical signal output of the sensor under long-term operation or environmental changes. The higher the stability, the higher the reliability of the sensor.
Temperature characteristics: Temperature characteristics refer to the change of the electrical signal output of the sensor at different temperatures. The better the temperature characteristics, the higher the measurement accuracy of the sensor at different temperatures.
Anti-interference ability: Anti-interference ability refers to the stability of the electrical signal output of the sensor under external electromagnetic interference. The higher the anti-interference ability, the higher the measurement accuracy of the sensor in a complex environment.
IV. Application Fields of Magnetoelectric Sensors
Magnetoelectric sensors are widely used in the following fields:
Industrial automation: Magnetoelectric sensors can be used to measure parameters such as the position, speed and acceleration of objects to achieve industrial automation control.
Aerospace: Magnetoelectric sensors can be used to measure parameters such as the attitude, speed and acceleration of aircraft to achieve navigation and control of aircraft.
Medical equipment: Magnetoelectric sensors can be used to measure vital signs of the human body, such as electrocardiogram, electroencephalogram and electromyogram, to achieve diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
Energy field: Magnetoelectric sensors can be used to measure parameters such as the rotational speed and torque of wind turbines to achieve control and optimization of wind power generation.
Environmental monitoring: Magnetoelectric sensors can be used to measure the change of the environmental magnetic field to achieve monitoring of the geomagnetic field and geophysical field.
