What's the difference between inductor and sensor?

Inductor


Definition:

  • (n.) The person who inducts another into an office or benefice.
  • (n.) That portion of an electrical apparatus, in which is the inducing charge or current.

  • (19) It is thus observed that chronic tonsillitis, symptoms of which may not be volunteered at examination, is a potent inductor of sickle cell pain crisis and that tonsillectomy is an effective mode of treatment, especially when the tonsillar crypts contain pus.
  • (20) Gene c alters the morphology of the mutant anterior endoderm - the primary heart inductor.

Sensor


Definition:

  • (a.) Sensory; as, the sensor nerves.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Different measurements were repeated for five sensors.
  • (2) A pressure sensor in the patient line prevents excessive inflow and outflow pressures by stopping the inflow or outflow pump respectively.
  • (3) As an inspiratory monitor in the curarized patient, the sensor responds quantitatively to persisting spontaneous tidal volumes of 1 ml.

  • (9) Efforts to obtain long term, reliable direct measurements of blood pressures have not been successful because of blood clotting impairing the function of sensors, baseline drift, artifacts on measurements, and health hazard-related catheterization.
  • (10) The algorithm is an improvement over the sphere model in that it considers two distinct surfaces: an ellipsoid, to model the region of the skull on which the sensors are placed, and a sphere as the medium in which the current dipole model is considered.
