Electrical impedance tomography spectroscopy method for characterising particles in solid-liquid phase
Abstract
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is one of the process tomography techniques to provide an on-line non-invasive imaging for multiphase flow measurement. With EIT measurements, the images of impedance real part, impedance imaginary part, phase angle, and magnitude can be obtained. However, most of the applications of EIT in the process industries rely on the conductivity difference between two phases in fluids to obtain the concentration profiles. It is not common to use the imaginary part or phase angle due to the dominant change in conductivity or complication in the use of other impedance information. In a solid-liquid two phases system involving nano- or submicro-particles, characterisation of particles (e.g. particle size and concentration) have to rely on the measurement of impedance phase angle or imaginary part. Particles in a solution usually have an electrical double layer associated with their surfaces and can form an induced electrical dipole moment due to the polarization of the electrical double layer under the influence of an alternating electric field. Similar to EIT, electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurement can record the electrical impedance data, including impedance real part, imaginary part and phase angle (θ), which are caused by the polarization of the electrical double layer. These impedance data are related to the particle characteristics e.g. particle size, particle and ionic concentrations in the aqueous medium, therefore EIS method provides a capability for characterising the particles in suspensions. Electrical impedance tomography based on EIS measurement or namely, electrical impedance tomography spectroscopy (EITS) could image the spatial distribution of particle characteristics. In this paper, a new method, including test set-up and data analysis, for characterisation of particles in suspensions are developed through the experimental approach. The experimental results on tomographic imaging of colloidal particles based on EIS measurement using a sensor of 8 electrodes are reported. Results have demonstrated the potential as well as revealed the challenge in the use of EIS and EITS for characterisation of particle in suspension. ? 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.

电疲劳对掺镧锆钛酸铅陶瓷电致畴变行为的影响
杨凤娟; 程璇; 张颖 (2015-3-6)在不同电疲劳周次下,对未极化掺镧锆钛酸铅铁电陶瓷在不同直流电场加载下得到的原位X射线衍射(Xrd)谱和撤掉不同直流电场后得到的非原位Xrd谱的(002)与(200)晶面衍射峰强与电场强度(EA)的关系进行研究。通过计算90°畴变体积分数发现,在电疲劳过程中,电场撤掉前后的90°畴变体积分数均随EA呈蝶形曲线变化。在低电场作用下,铁电畴更趋向于沿平行试样表面方向,而在EA=2 000 V/MM作用下,当电疲劳至106时,材料中有约5%的铁 ... -
