Measurements of the electrical parameters for different water samples
, Article Measurement: Journal of the International Measurement Confederation ; Volume 44, Issue 10 , 2011 , Pages 2175-2184 ; 02632241 (ISSN) ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
The resistance and capacitance values of the water samples are measured by using two different cell probes (length 10 cm and 5 cm) and a measuring module. Measured conductivities for the different water samples are compared where the lowest conductivity is obtained for the distilled water (3.28 μS/cm) and the highest value is for the boiled water 325.91 μS/cm. Using the measured series resistance values, and by knowing the frequency (1 kHz), the imaginary part of permittivity value is also determined. The imaginary part of the permittivity for the distilled water with the long cell probe is about 0.524 × 10 -7 F/m (for the short probe is 0.523 × 10-7 F/m) while for the boiled water sample is...
Investigation of conductivity effects on capacitance measurements of water liquids using a cylindrical capacitive sensor
, Article Journal of Applied Sciences ; Volume 10, Issue 4 , 2010 , Pages 261-268 ; 18125654 (ISSN) ; Golnabi, H ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
In this study by using a Cylindrical Capacitive Sensor (CCS), the Electrical Conductivity (EC), effects on the capacitance measurements of the water liquids was investigated. Theoretical values of the capacitance measurements of water liquids with the cylindrical length in the range 0.5-5 cm are calculated. Our obtained results indicate that measured capacitance value by CCS depends on the liquid capacitance and reactance capacitance. Liquid capacitance value of the distilled water for permittivity of 80 is about 33.5 pF and reactance capacitance value is about 0.290 μF, when the cylindrical length value is about 1.6 cm. The reactance capacitance for the mineral, tap and dilute salt water...

Abstract
In this study design and operation of invasive and non-invasive cylindrical capacitive sensor (CCS) designs for the electrical measurements of water, water solutions, and water mixtures are reported. Operation of the capacitance measurement module for such probes is based on the charge/discharge method. The measured capacitances and resistances for distilled water, mineral water, tap water and salt water samples are reported by using two sensor types and results are compared. The measured capacitance by invasive CCS for distilled water is about 2.28 μF and by non-invasive CCS is 31.40 pF, which shows a big difference for different probes. Such a difference is due to the electrical...
