Instrumentation and Control - Lecture 1

This document outlines an instrumentation and control systems course. The course objectives are to understand instrumentation methods and principles, learn how to measure various parameters, gain an understanding of control systems, and learn how to mathematically model systems. The instrumentation portion of the course will cover topics like measurement planning, general measurement systems, calibration, static and dynamic measurement, measurement errors, and instruments for measuring length, force, pressure, flow, and temperature. Recommended textbooks are provided. Instrumentation is defined as using measuring instruments to monitor and control processes, and it involves measurement and control of variables in manufacturing and other areas. The importance of measurement in engineering is discussed.

What is Instrumentation?

Instrumentation is
the
use
of measuring
instruments to monitor and control a process. It is the
art and science of measurement and control of
process variables within a production, laboratory, or
manufacturing area.
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation)

What is Instrumentation?
We can look at instrumentation work in two ways, by
techniques or by applications.
When we consider instrumentation by technique,
We survey one scientific field, such as radioactivity or
ultrasonics, and look at all the ways in which it can be
used to make useful measurements.
When we study instrumentation by application,
We cover the different techniques to measure a particular
quantity. Under flow metering, for instance, we look at
many methods, including tracers, ultrasonics, or
pressure measurement.

Why Mechanical Measurements


Importance of Measurement is
simply and eloquently expressed in
the following statement of famous
physicist Lord Kelvin: I often say that
when you can measure what you are
speaking about and can express it in
numbers, you know something about it;
when you cannot express it in numbers
your knowledge is of meager and
unsatisfactory kind

Activity
Let us Divide the class in 5 groups
You Must have done many measurements
by your self or have at least witnessed a
lot of measurement being done. So define
in your own words what is Measurement
So draw at least 3 Measuring devices that
you have used, and its applications.
Second. Write down How well you plan for
an experiments
