LabVIEW projects

Introduction

At ChemE¹⁾ researchers build their experimental setups for their research e.g. on nano-technology. Below is list of some projects where LabVIEW has been used for the automation of such setups.

• NOVA DAC tool - Emmanuel Skupien
  Using LabVIEW to add DAC signals to an Autolab potentiostat.
• Data Tracker simulation - Max Makee (author)
  Simulation of Data Tracker 223
• Dropping Ball Analysis - Sven Weerdenburg (author)
  Using Vision Assistant for Dropping Ball Project.

• Brookhaven XRD data analysis tool
  A tool to create 3D graphs from Synchrotron XRD measurements.

• ASAP2000 signal processing - Frank Kloosterman (author)
  Hardware simulation of the ASAP2000 signal, including noise and rimple, and signal readback, including noise reduction and filtering.
• Fluizdized Bed with Mass Flow Controllers and Electrometer setup - Naoko Ellis
  This vi controls the gasflows through a fluidized bed and measures pressures and electric charges.
• Power Management Application for Methanol Factory - Sander Brouwer
  This vi measures and displays the power generated by a photovoltaic cell and a windturbine and the power used by an experimental Methanol Factory. Power from or to an emulated battery and the grid are calculated and displayed as well.
• Automated measurements on a packed bed reactor - Kalyani Pangarkar
  This vi controls several types of hardware and can be operated both manually and automatically, using a recipe.
• Pressure measurements on the Residence Time Distribution equipment - Dana Christensen
  The goal of this program is to use a recipe to execute an automated series of pressure measurements.
