Power consumption measurement

Thus, if the cohesivity of the moist powder mass is monitored, e.g., by torque or power consumption measurement, a typical profile (Fig. 8) is...

Motor slip is the difference between the rotational speed of an idle motor and the motor under load. Motor slip measurements, although relatively inexpensive, do not offer advantages over the power consumption measurements. The method did not gain popularity, probably because the slip is not linearly related to the load, despite some claims to the contrary. 

The main problem with the power consumption measurements is that this variable reflects load on the motor rather than load on the impeller. It relates to the overall mixer performance, depends on the motor efficiency, and can change with time regardless of the load. 

A technique for measuring tensile strength of granules, in addition to power consumption measurement, to facilitate optimal end-point determination was recently described by Betz, Biirgin, and Leuenberger. " ...

The end-point control of granulation by power consumption measurement in a 25 L high-shear mixer was investigated by Holm et al. (42). The effect of impeller design, impeller speed, liquid addition rate, type of binder, and mixing ratios between lactose and starch on the correlation between power consumption and granule... 

Our aim is to exploit the ANN capabilities to infer real-time power consumption starting from network traffic observation and viceversa to infer network traffic starting from power consumption measurement. The core concept that made this possible is the correlation among the two metrics found in [5].
