Re: Capabilities of a Hall-Effect sensor

I thought the housing was AL, and that the blades were something else.
4.6 kHz is still pretty fast for moving blades. Could you do a vibration technique with accelerometers on the axle (not sure if one exists on a turbine), and then at various locations on the housing. If you phase reference the motion of 1 relative to the motion of the other you might be able to deduce distance deltas.
