Study of Inductive Sensors for Automotive Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

There is an ever increasing demand for use of inductive speed sensors in a broad range of applications. They are used in typical applications such as cam and crank shaft position/speed and wheel and turbo shaft speed measurement. This paper describes the type of inductive sensor found on vehicles and the difficulties of detecting at low speeds. In the laboratory of Mechatronics an experimental device has been done to measure the speed using an inductive speed sensor. The experimental results are satisfactory and show the possibility of the inductive sensors to be used in automotive industry.
