Preface
Introduction
The second edition of The Measurement, Instrumentation, and Sensors Handbook comes in two vol-
umes. This edition reflects the current state of the art in measurement, instrumentation, and sensors. In
this two-volume set, all chapters have been updated, and 40 new chapters have been included to provide
the finest possible reference that is both concise and useful for engineers practicing in industry, scien-
tists and engineers involved in R&D, designers, college and university personnel and students, as well
as managers, together with many others who are involved in instrumentation and measurement design
and applications.
The handbook covers an extensive range of topics that comprise the subject of measurement, instru-
mentation, and sensors. It describes the use of instruments and techniques for practical measurements
required in engineering, physics, chemistry, environmental science, and the life sciences. It also explains
sensors, techniques, hardware, and the associated software. The handbook includes information pro-
cessing systems, automatic data acquisition, reduction and analysis, operation characteristics, accuracy,
errors, calibrations, standards, and their incorporation for control purposes. Emphasis is given on mod-
ern intelligent instruments and techniques, wireless network operations, human factors, and modern
display methods, as well as virtual instruments.
The chapters include descriptive information for professionals, students, and workers interested in
measurement. They include equations to assist engineers and scientists who seek to discover applica-
tions and solve problems that arise in fields not in their specialty. They also include specialized informa-
tion needed by informed specialists who seek to learn advanced applications of the subject, evaluative
opinions, and possible areas for future study. Thus, the handbook serves the reference needs of the
broadest group of users—from the advanced high-school science student to industrial and university
professionals.
Organization
In this edition, the first volume has 10 parts, each having several chapters, for a total of 96 chapters
written by experts in their areas. It concentrates on concepts in instrumentation and measurements,
spatial variable measurement, displacement measurement, mechanical variable measurement, acous-
tics, flow and spot velocity, thermal and temperature measurement, and radiation. It reflects recent
trends in instrumentation and measurements with the addition of a new part on wireless instrumenta-
tion. Concepts in control systems and human factors are given as a separate part.
The second volume has 10 parts, each having several chapters, for a total of 96 chapters written by
experts in their areas as in volume 1. It concentrates on sensors and sensor technology, electric variable
measurement, electromagnetic variables, time and frequency, optical measurement, chemical variables,
xiv Preface
medical, biomedical and health, and environmental measurement. Signal processing, and displays and
recorders constitute the last two parts of this volume.
Locating Your Topic
To find out how to measure a given variable, skim the table of contents, turn to that section, and find the
chapters that describe different methods of making the measurement. Consider the alternative methods
of making the measurement and each of their advantages and disadvantages. Select a method, sensor,
and signal processing method. Many chapters list a number of vendors to contact for more information.
You can also visit http://www.globalspec.com/ to obtain a list of vendors.
For more detailed information, consult the index, since certain principles of measurement may
appear in more than one chapter.

FOOTNOTES
[1] My arrival in England was postponed to some months later
through an attack of beriberi.
[2] It was unknown to me till afterwards that Dr. Koch-
Grünberg of Berlin had, in 1904, ascended the Uaupes to, I
believe, 71° west longitude.
[3] A rifle, where possessed, is never used against an animal
but kept for use against the white man.
[4] Turtle eggs are, curiously enough, not considered fœtal.
[5] For my share I had the honour to receive, through the
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, the thanks of the French
Government.
[6] Steamers have been on the Amazon since 1853, and
navigation is continuous throughout the year (cf. Brazilian Year-
Book).
[7] I never saw the Andes actually from these districts, but the
suggestion is always there, they are seen in the mind’s eye; an
ultimate, if invisible, limit to what would otherwise seem more
than illimitable.
[8] Wallace, p. 246.
[9] Spruce, ii. 379-380.
[10] Robuchon’s estimate of distances is 471 geographical
miles from Iquitos to the mouth of the Issa; thence to the
Cotuhe, which he places at 2° 53′ 12″ S. and 69° 41′ 10″ W., 150
geographical miles. From the Cotuhe to the Igara Parana, 252
miles, a total distance of 873 geographical miles from Iquitos to
the Igara Parana.
[11] Robuchon gives latitude 1° 43′ 9″ S., longitude 71° 53′
36″ W.
[12] Spruce, i. 7, ii. 100.
[13] September to January is the hottest portion of the year,
the heat being at its worst in December. 90° would be extreme
heat, and 70° the lowest the mercury would probably reach; the
average being from 75° to 85°. Robuchon is responsible for the
statement that the temperature at the mouth of the Cotuhe in
September was 43° Cent. in the shade, but that after a brisk
shower it fell to 31°. The water of the Amazon has a temperature
of 81°; the Japura is a warmer river and reaches 85°. Wallace
gives the mean temperature of the Rio Negro water in September
—that is, during the hot season—as 86°, and the corresponding
temperature of the air as from 76° to 92.5°. The water, he
considers, is probably never less than 80° at any time. The
temperature of the Uaupes has been noted as invariably 76° at
three to six feet below the surface (Geo. Journ., 1910, p. 683).
[14] The Amazon at its mouth is 158 miles across from bank to
bank.
[15] This I take to be the Yacitara mentioned by Spruce, i. 30.
[16] Wallace noted a butterfly frequenting “the dung of some
carnivorous animal” in Malacca, and remarks that many tropical
butterflies suck liquid from muddy places, “and are generally so
intent upon their meal that they can be easily approached and
captured” (Wallace, The Malay Archipelago, pp. 29, 114).
[17] Spruce, ii. 366.
[18] Bates, ii. 262.
[19] Spruce, i. 49.
[20] One tree is reputed to be so poisonous that no Indian will
touch it. See Maw, p. 294.
[21] These tribal houses differ from the communal long-houses
of the Fly Delta, British New Guinea, not only in shape, but in that
there are no platforms and no divisions for each family; the whole
interior is open. For description of Kiwai and Daudai long-houses
see Expedition to Torres Straits, iv. 112-117.
[22] Maloka = Indian lodge or tribal house (lingoa-geral).
[23] Manicaria saccifera (cf. Spruce, i. 56).
[24] Eugene André noted that two kinds were commonly used
on the Causa, the mulato, a kind of Aroideae, and the murcielago,
which belongs to the Bignoniaceae family.
[25] Several kinds of palm-leaves are used for this purpose,
and whichever was most easily procurable in the district where
the house was built would be used by the tribe. Hardenburg
mentions the leaves of the Phytelephas macrocarpa, the
vegetable ivory-tree, as in use among the Witoto, and the Bactris
ciliata or Chonta palm for the posts and rafters (p. 135). The
leaves of the Bussu palm, Manicaria saccifera, will make a thatch
that lasts for ten or twelve years, by some accounts (cf.
Waterton, p. 479).
[26] Wallace, p. 341.
[27] This is architecturally interesting in view of Foucart’s
theory of the evolution of the Egyptian grooved stone pillar from
wooden originals, bundles of reeds.
[28] Simson mentions such a “door,” p. 237.
[29] Wallace, p. 341.
[30] Among the Jivaro one partitioned half of the house is kept
for the women (Orton, p. 171). There is no such distinction
among the Issa-Japura tribes.
[31] Cf. Wallace, p. 354.
[32] Crevaux has described the process. He watched an Indian
“qui fait du feu en roulant vivement un roseau dans une cavité
creusée dans une tige de roncon” (Voyage dans l’Amérique du
sud, p. 214). Wallace mentions this method among the Kuretu,
op. cit. 355.
[33] If a jigger is removed at once with a needle it will not
hurt, and scarcely makes a puncture.
[34] Vampires in this country are few and far between, but
Simson mentions them as a plague at Agnano (Simson, p. 131).
[35] Bates, i. 246. For the taming of a full-grown Coita see p.
247. Another pet mentioned by Bates, a “strange kind of wood-
cricket,” is also unknown to me as a pet, and though I have often
heard loud-voiced insects of the cricket class they have never
been in captivity (cf. Bates, i. 250).
[36] Cf. Martius, P.R.G.S. ii. 192.
[37] See Appendix.
[38] Deniker, p. 552.
[39] Marriage by capture was a Carib custom (Westermarck, p.
383). It is unknown nowadays to the tribes south of the Japura.
[40] Partial couvade is found also among tribes in the north of
America, that is to say, certain things are tabu to the father after
the child’s birth. Cf. Dorsey, Siouan Cults, p. 511; Venegas, i. 94;
Tylor, pp. 294-7.
[41] im Thurn, p. 173. Joyce locates the original Caribs on the
upper Xingu, from whence, he considers, they spread over Guiana
and the lesser Antilles (South American Archæology, p. 256).
Rodway, on the authority of Spanish chronicled Arawak
information, suggests they were the original inhabitants of the
north-west coast, migrant from Mexico (Guiana, pp. 41, 45).

account of the large studs they wore in the lobes of their ears.

[58] This combination is of so exceptional a character that it is
hardly to be recognised as a definite trait of organisation, and it
follows that though such exceptional cases may point to a
possible past unity of clans as a tribe, these clans are now
practically small tribes, being incapable of combining for common
action. The expressions language-group, tribe, and tribesman are
therefore more correct than tribe, clan, and clansman would be.
[59] Cf. im Thurn, p. 185.
[60] This is exactly the reverse of the matrilocal customs
related by Sir Everard im Thurn.
[61] Or their artists and publishers.
[62] “The natives are ashamed, as they say, to be clothed”
(Humboldt, Travels, iii. 230; cf. also Wallace, p. 357). Clothes, in
fact, are often donned by savages at periods of license only. See
Westermarck, History of Human Marriage, chap. ix.
[63] There are several trees in these forests that supply the
needed fibrous bark. im Thurn suggests that the bark used is that
of the Lecythis ollaria, but Spruce states that tauari is made from
the bark of certain species of Tecoma of the Bignoniaceae order,
and tururi, a thinner bark-cloth, from various figs and Artocarps.
Naturally natives use the tree that is handiest when required (cf.
im Thurn, pp. 194, 291; Spruce, i. 27).
[64] Dr. de Lacerda in his journal for July 22, 1798, describes
just such a manufacture of bark-cloth carried on by the Muizas,
who traded this with their neighbours the Maraves. See Land of
Carembe, R.G.S., 1873, p. 71. Loin-cloths made from the bark of
the Artocarps are also found among the Semang of Kedah and
other wild tribes of the Malay Peninsula. See Skeat and Blagden,
i. 143-4, 157, 376, etc.
[65] A similar geographical progression has been noted among
the women of British New Guinea. See Williamson, The Mafulu, p.
28.
[66] Sandals known as alparagatas, with soles of plaited aloe-
fibre, are usually worn by travellers in the Amazons. These can be
cleaned and washed in the same way. See also Simson, p. 83.
[67] Wallace, p. 351.
[68] Feather ruffs are worn by Napo Indians, but not by these
tribes.

  • 19. xiii Preface Introduction The second edition of The Measurement, Instrumentation, and Sensors Handbook comes in two vol- umes. This edition reflects the current state of the art in measurement, instrumentation, and sensors. In this two-volume set, all chapters have been updated, and 40 new chapters have been included to provide the finest possible reference that is both concise and useful for engineers practicing in industry, scien- tists and engineers involved in R&D, designers, college and university personnel and students, as well as managers, together with many others who are involved in instrumentation and measurement design and applications. The handbook covers an extensive range of topics that comprise the subject of measurement, instru- mentation, and sensors. It describes the use of instruments and techniques for practical measurements required in engineering, physics, chemistry, environmental science, and the life sciences. It also explains sensors, techniques, hardware, and the associated software. The handbook includes information pro- cessing systems, automatic data acquisition, reduction and analysis, operation characteristics, accuracy, errors, calibrations, standards, and their incorporation for control purposes. Emphasis is given on mod- ern intelligent instruments and techniques, wireless network operations, human factors, and modern display methods, as well as virtual instruments. The chapters include descriptive information for professionals, students, and workers interested in measurement. They include equations to assist engineers and scientists who seek to discover applica- tions and solve problems that arise in fields not in their specialty. They also include specialized informa- tion needed by informed specialists who seek to learn advanced applications of the subject, evaluative opinions, and possible areas for future study. Thus, the handbook serves the reference needs of the broadest group of users—from the advanced high-school science student to industrial and university professionals. Organization In this edition, the first volume has 10 parts, each having several chapters, for a total of 96 chapters written by experts in their areas. It concentrates on concepts in instrumentation and measurements, spatial variable measurement, displacement measurement, mechanical variable measurement, acous- tics, flow and spot velocity, thermal and temperature measurement, and radiation. It reflects recent trends in instrumentation and measurements with the addition of a new part on wireless instrumenta- tion. Concepts in control systems and human factors are given as a separate part. The second volume has 10 parts, each having several chapters, for a total of 96 chapters written by experts in their areas as in volume 1. It concentrates on sensors and sensor technology, electric variable measurement, electromagnetic variables, time and frequency, optical measurement, chemical variables,
  • 20. xiv Preface medical, biomedical and health, and environmental measurement. Signal processing, and displays and recorders constitute the last two parts of this volume. Locating Your Topic To find out how to measure a given variable, skim the table of contents, turn to that section, and find the chapters that describe different methods of making the measurement. Consider the alternative methods of making the measurement and each of their advantages and disadvantages. Select a method, sensor, and signal processing method. Many chapters list a number of vendors to contact for more information. You can also visit http://www.globalspec.com/ to obtain a list of vendors. For more detailed information, consult the index, since certain principles of measurement may appear in more than one chapter. MATLAB® is a registered trademark of The MathWorks, Inc.

  • 47. FOOTNOTES [1] My arrival in England was postponed to some months later through an attack of beriberi. [2] It was unknown to me till afterwards that Dr. Koch- Grünberg of Berlin had, in 1904, ascended the Uaupes to, I believe, 71° west longitude. [3] A rifle, where possessed, is never used against an animal but kept for use against the white man. [4] Turtle eggs are, curiously enough, not considered fœtal. [5] For my share I had the honour to receive, through the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, the thanks of the French Government. [6] Steamers have been on the Amazon since 1853, and navigation is continuous throughout the year (cf. Brazilian Year- Book). [7] I never saw the Andes actually from these districts, but the suggestion is always there, they are seen in the mind’s eye; an ultimate, if invisible, limit to what would otherwise seem more than illimitable. [8] Wallace, p. 246. [9] Spruce, ii. 379-380. [10] Robuchon’s estimate of distances is 471 geographical miles from Iquitos to the mouth of the Issa; thence to the Cotuhe, which he places at 2° 53′ 12″ S. and 69° 41′ 10″ W., 150 geographical miles. From the Cotuhe to the Igara Parana, 252 miles, a total distance of 873 geographical miles from Iquitos to the Igara Parana. [11] Robuchon gives latitude 1° 43′ 9″ S., longitude 71° 53′ 36″ W. [12] Spruce, i. 7, ii. 100.
  • 48. [13] September to January is the hottest portion of the year, the heat being at its worst in December. 90° would be extreme heat, and 70° the lowest the mercury would probably reach; the average being from 75° to 85°. Robuchon is responsible for the statement that the temperature at the mouth of the Cotuhe in September was 43° Cent. in the shade, but that after a brisk shower it fell to 31°. The water of the Amazon has a temperature of 81°; the Japura is a warmer river and reaches 85°. Wallace gives the mean temperature of the Rio Negro water in September —that is, during the hot season—as 86°, and the corresponding temperature of the air as from 76° to 92.5°. The water, he considers, is probably never less than 80° at any time. The temperature of the Uaupes has been noted as invariably 76° at three to six feet below the surface (Geo. Journ., 1910, p. 683). [14] The Amazon at its mouth is 158 miles across from bank to bank. [15] This I take to be the Yacitara mentioned by Spruce, i. 30. [16] Wallace noted a butterfly frequenting “the dung of some carnivorous animal” in Malacca, and remarks that many tropical butterflies suck liquid from muddy places, “and are generally so intent upon their meal that they can be easily approached and captured” (Wallace, The Malay Archipelago, pp. 29, 114). [17] Spruce, ii. 366. [18] Bates, ii. 262. [19] Spruce, i. 49. [20] One tree is reputed to be so poisonous that no Indian will touch it. See Maw, p. 294. [21] These tribal houses differ from the communal long-houses of the Fly Delta, British New Guinea, not only in shape, but in that there are no platforms and no divisions for each family; the whole interior is open. For description of Kiwai and Daudai long-houses see Expedition to Torres Straits, iv. 112-117. [22] Maloka = Indian lodge or tribal house (lingoa-geral). [23] Manicaria saccifera (cf. Spruce, i. 56). [24] Eugene André noted that two kinds were commonly used on the Causa, the mulato, a kind of Aroideae, and the murcielago, which belongs to the Bignoniaceae family.
  • 49. [25] Several kinds of palm-leaves are used for this purpose, and whichever was most easily procurable in the district where the house was built would be used by the tribe. Hardenburg mentions the leaves of the Phytelephas macrocarpa, the vegetable ivory-tree, as in use among the Witoto, and the Bactris ciliata or Chonta palm for the posts and rafters (p. 135). The leaves of the Bussu palm, Manicaria saccifera, will make a thatch that lasts for ten or twelve years, by some accounts (cf. Waterton, p. 479). [26] Wallace, p. 341. [27] This is architecturally interesting in view of Foucart’s theory of the evolution of the Egyptian grooved stone pillar from wooden originals, bundles of reeds. [28] Simson mentions such a “door,” p. 237. [29] Wallace, p. 341. [30] Among the Jivaro one partitioned half of the house is kept for the women (Orton, p. 171). There is no such distinction among the Issa-Japura tribes. [31] Cf. Wallace, p. 354. [32] Crevaux has described the process. He watched an Indian “qui fait du feu en roulant vivement un roseau dans une cavité creusée dans une tige de roncon” (Voyage dans l’Amérique du sud, p. 214). Wallace mentions this method among the Kuretu, op. cit. 355. [33] If a jigger is removed at once with a needle it will not hurt, and scarcely makes a puncture. [34] Vampires in this country are few and far between, but Simson mentions them as a plague at Agnano (Simson, p. 131). [35] Bates, i. 246. For the taming of a full-grown Coita see p. 247. Another pet mentioned by Bates, a “strange kind of wood- cricket,” is also unknown to me as a pet, and though I have often heard loud-voiced insects of the cricket class they have never been in captivity (cf. Bates, i. 250). [36] Cf. Martius, P.R.G.S. ii. 192. [37] See Appendix. [38] Deniker, p. 552.
  • 50. [39] Marriage by capture was a Carib custom (Westermarck, p. 383). It is unknown nowadays to the tribes south of the Japura. [40] Partial couvade is found also among tribes in the north of America, that is to say, certain things are tabu to the father after the child’s birth. Cf. Dorsey, Siouan Cults, p. 511; Venegas, i. 94; Tylor, pp. 294-7. [41] im Thurn, p. 173. Joyce locates the original Caribs on the upper Xingu, from whence, he considers, they spread over Guiana and the lesser Antilles (South American Archæology, p. 256). Rodway, on the authority of Spanish chronicled Arawak information, suggests they were the original inhabitants of the north-west coast, migrant from Mexico (Guiana, pp. 41, 45). [42] Ibid. pp. 171-2. [43] Crevaux, Fleuves de l’Amérique du Sud, Yapura, F. 5 et 7. [44] Crevaux, Vocabulaire français-roucouyenne. [45] Koch-Grünberg, Journal de la Société des Américainistes de Paris, tome iii. No. 2 (1906). [46] Koch-Grünberg, Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, xxxviii, 189. [47] It must be remembered that I came to all these people from the Witoto country. [48] Crevaux, Voyages dans l’Amérique du Sud, p. 368. [49] Martius, Beiträge, ii. 340. [50] The Inca were called Orejones by the Spaniards on account of the large studs they wore in the lobes of their ears. See Joyce, p. 110; Ratzel, ii. 172. [51] Simson, p. 210. [52] Koch-Grünberg, Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, xxxviii. 188 (1906). [53] Cd. 6266, pp. 9, 10, 12, 25, 26. [54] Rice, p. 690. [55] Wallace, p. 354. [56] See Appendix. [57] Hardenburg, Man, p. 134. [58] This combination is of so exceptional a character that it is hardly to be recognised as a definite trait of organisation, and it
  • 51. follows that though such exceptional cases may point to a possible past unity of clans as a tribe, these clans are now practically small tribes, being incapable of combining for common action. The expressions language-group, tribe, and tribesman are therefore more correct than tribe, clan, and clansman would be. [59] Cf. im Thurn, p. 185. [60] This is exactly the reverse of the matrilocal customs related by Sir Everard im Thurn. [61] Or their artists and publishers. [62] “The natives are ashamed, as they say, to be clothed” (Humboldt, Travels, iii. 230; cf. also Wallace, p. 357). Clothes, in fact, are often donned by savages at periods of license only. See Westermarck, History of Human Marriage, chap. ix. [63] There are several trees in these forests that supply the needed fibrous bark. im Thurn suggests that the bark used is that of the Lecythis ollaria, but Spruce states that tauari is made from the bark of certain species of Tecoma of the Bignoniaceae order, and tururi, a thinner bark-cloth, from various figs and Artocarps. Naturally natives use the tree that is handiest when required (cf. im Thurn, pp. 194, 291; Spruce, i. 27). [64] Dr. de Lacerda in his journal for July 22, 1798, describes just such a manufacture of bark-cloth carried on by the Muizas, who traded this with their neighbours the Maraves. See Land of Carembe, R.G.S., 1873, p. 71. Loin-cloths made from the bark of the Artocarps are also found among the Semang of Kedah and other wild tribes of the Malay Peninsula. See Skeat and Blagden, i. 143-4, 157, 376, etc. [65] A similar geographical progression has been noted among the women of British New Guinea. See Williamson, The Mafulu, p. 28. [66] Sandals known as alparagatas, with soles of plaited aloe- fibre, are usually worn by travellers in the Amazons. These can be cleaned and washed in the same way. See also Simson, p. 83. [67] Wallace, p. 351. [68] Feather ruffs are worn by Napo Indians, but not by these tribes. [69] im Thurn, p. 305.
