I'm currently doing a final year project in college which requires we use a pressure sensor to measure the flow rate through a small compartment. We ordered one recently but it had a digital output which we have heard is more difficult to program. As we are new to this we have decided to opt for an analog output
Could someone recommend a pressure sensor to measure up to 3 bar the operating rate of air is 2 bar , flow rate of air 11.5 m/s with an analogy output, we are using an arduino uno?
But I don't know how to connect that to an Arduino.
I don't understand the range of the pressure sensor.
You want to measure the differential pressure to measure the flow ? I would understand a value of about 50mbar, but I don't understand the 3 bar.
Freescale is the main supplier of pressure sensors:
