Variable capacitance transducers<br />

This capacitance transducer is used to<br />

determine the level of liquid hydrogen.<br />

The capacitance between the central<br />

rod and the surrounding tube varies with<br />

the changing dielectric constant KK,<br />

varying because of the changing liquid<br />

level.<br />
