Abstract:
To investigate the problem of the lag stability of the capacitance value during the level drop of the dirty U-shaped liquid level sensor, the equivalent circuit of the dirty U-shaped liquid level sensor was analyzed, and the transformer bridge's principle circuit that uses RF admittance technology was designed accordingly. Using the method of controlling a single variable, the measurement accuracy of the circuit was simulated when the dividing capacitance and the regulating capacitance had different values. Then, the right parameter values for the dividing capacitance and the regulating capacitance were found. On this basis, the change of the sensor output capacitance and the change of the length of the attached seawater mixture were controlled separately under the condition of removing the seawater mixture. The simulation outcomes showed that the measurement accuracy was excellent under various situations, validating the transformer principle bridge circuit's efficacy in minimizing the influence of the output capacitance value's lag stability.
