ThermocoupleSensorPostprocessor

This is a ThermocoupleSensorPostprocessor for various classes of thermocouples, described by the 'thermocouple_type' parameter

Description

ThermocoupleSensorPostprocessor object implements a thermocouple sensor that takes in the calculated input signal from moose and outputs a realistic and sensor-mediated output that accounts for efficiency, drift, delay and noise of the sensor in question. Different types of thermocouples are included. This is a child class of GeneralSensorPostprocessor.

From the GeneralSensorPostprocessor, $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-1cb5e750-8543-44bd-83de-658426297d8d");katex.render(" \\tilde{u}(t) = u(t) + f_{SN}(t)n(\\sigma(t)) ", element, {displayMode:true,throwOnError:false});$

$var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-90ab3573-ade2-4f10-8e11-5f8c85020a0a");katex.render("v(t) = \\mu(t) + \\eta(t) \\left\\{ K_p \\tilde{u}(t-\\tau(t)) + K_i \\int_{0}^{t} \\tilde{u}(t') R(t, t') dt' \\right\\} + \\epsilon(\\sigma(t))", element, {displayMode:true,throwOnError:false});$

For a thermocouple, $var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-b28a465c-a953-43af-a4f5-f645fd9b44ad");katex.render("R(t, t') = \\frac{e^{-(t-t')/\\tau}}{\\tau} ,", element, {displayMode:true,throwOnError:false});$

$var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-a16571d2-f69a-46a9-b671-a7f6e15a9bd2");katex.render("K_p=0, K_i=1,", element, {displayMode:true,throwOnError:false});$

$var element = document.getElementById("moose-equation-0e7ef92c-23d7-44ae-8aa8-4a377016ceef");katex.render("v(t) = \\mu(t) + \\eta(t)~\\int_{0}^{t} \\tilde{u}(t') e^{(t-t')/\\tau} dt' + \\epsilon(\\sigma(t))", element, {displayMode:true,throwOnError:false});$
