Abstract
Inductance detection methods of metal particle in hydraulic oil are generally based on the inductance change detection. With this method, when particles pass through the microchannel, ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic metal particle can be distinguished by monitoring inductance. In this study, it was found that not only inductance pulse but also resistance pulse was produced when detecting particle by inductance detection method. The theory of inductance or resistance change caused by particle is presented from the perspective of electromagnetism in this paper. To verify this phenomenon, the oil sample mixed with different metal particles was forced through the detection coil of microfluidic by constant flow rate. Then several sizes of iron and copper particles were measured. Experimental results showed that the resistance pulses caused by iron particles and copper particles were positive. And for copper particle, SNR (Signal Noise Ratio) of copper particles detected in improved effectively by detecting the resistance pulse.
