Abstract
A data acquisition system used for temperature and mass concentration measurements is described. Data logging devices interfaced with a microcomputer are shown to offer a large data collection capacity suitable for transient measurements. Additional hardware required to interface conductivity probes to a microcomputer via a commercially available data logger is illustrated. Practical details on software to facilitate the data communication is described, and software for data reduction written in the C programming language is also provided.
