Abstract

The linear and nonlinear temperature responses restrict the application of Hall current sensors operating in thermal power plants and industries. The rise in temperature of electron device-based measurement causes a significant error, leading to undesirable consequences for plant operation and relay coordination. This paper investigates four Hall current sensor types with linear and nonlinear temperature responses. The Hall current sensor, which receives the magnetic excitation from the permanent magnet, exhibits a linear temperature response, and the wire-wound design exhibits a nonlinear temperature response in the temperature range of 306–376 K. The solution scheme with amplitude modulation and thermal sensor integration with interdigitated electrode design having graphene and ZnO–KMnO4 compounds as the dielectric is also proposed. The use of amplitude modulation achieves input frequency immunity with a 0.03% K−1 improvement in the temperature response of the capacitive thermal sensor. Experimental observations confirm the validity of the thermal drift compensation scheme with a 20%–99% reduction of thermal drift error with a suitable choice of a thermal sensor.
