Practical exercises with LabVIEW simulators
Exercise
In the folder: https://study.engined.eu/mod/folder/view.php?id=767 you will find 4 simulators of impedance measuring devices:
- Q-meter (which measures impedance using the resonant method),
- C-bridge (which measures impedance using the bridge method),
- LC meter (which measures impedance using the technical method with constant frequency),
- Motech (which measures impedance with a few frequencies selectable).
Exercises:
a) Measure the impedance and Q-factor of 4 capacitors and 1 inductor per Q-meter.
b) Measure the impedance and \( tan \delta \) of the 4 capacitors on the C-bridge.
c) Measure the impedance and loss parameter: \(R_s\) or G of 4 capacitors and 1 coil on the LC meter.
d) Measure the impedance, self inductance and capacity of the inductor for 5 frequencies: 100 Hz, 1kHz, 10kHz, 100kHz, 200kHz on the Motech device. Plot the impedance module |Z| versus the frequency common logarithm ( log10(f) ).
To compare the obtained values, determine the capacitances and Q values of the capacitors, and determine the inductance and Q factor of the unknown coil. Are the values consistent within the measurement uncertainty?
