WHAT IS THE WORKING PRINCIPLE OF HYDRA STEP (DRUM LEVEL INDICATOR).
Answer - Its works on the principle of resistivity. The discrimination between water & steam is based on the significant difference in resistivity between the two states over the saturation range.when a voltage applied to the tip,conduction takes place between tip and inside wall of column.when the resistance of probe is less than 100K its represents the water % in drum and if it is greater than 100K its represents the % steam in drum.
