Stirling Engine Blog 22 Feb 18 2013


I have decided to use the Measurement Computing (MCC USB-TC) DAQ for the thermocouple measurements due to its simplicity. I am having some difficulty with this however as the ULx drivers supplied by Measurement Computing are not compatible with LabView 2011. 

I have potentially found a workaround  here: 

Solving this issue is the last major hurdle in the project. Once I have the data acquisition solved, all that is left is to do is install the remaining hardware. I am undecided whether setting up the pressure transducer is worthwhile as it will involve using the NI USB6211 DAQ and is unlikely to yield any crucial information. Due to project time constraints, I feel that omitting this sensor is the best course of action.
