Towards a shock tube method for the dynamic calibration of pressure sensors.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In theory, shock tubes provide a pressure change with a very fast rise time and calculable amplitude. This pressure step could provide the basis for the calibration of pressure transducers used in highly dynamic applications. However, conventional metal shock tubes can be expensive, unwieldy and difficult to modify. We describe the development of a 1.4 MPa (maximum pressure) shock tube made from unplasticized polyvinyl chloride pressure tubing which provides a low-cost, light and easily modifiable basis for establishing a method for determining the dynamic characteristics of pressure sensors.

Mathematical modelling to support traceable dynamic calibration of pressure sensors
This paper focuses on the mathematical modelling required to support the development of new primary standard systems for traceable calibration of dynamic pressure sensors. We address two fundamentally different approaches to realising primary standards, specifically the shock tube method and the drop-weight method. Focusing on the shock tube method, the paper presents first results of system id...
متن کاملAn Optical Measurement System to Measure Velocity and Provide Shock Wave Pressure Diagrams
This paper introduces an optical measurement system for shock wave characteristics. The system works by mountinga metal plate attached to spring mounts against the shock wavefront. This set is sealed and can plot the shock wave pressure diagram by measuring plate's displacement, radiation and changing the reflection of light during shock wave conflict, and converting these optical data to volta...
متن کاملNovel Method for Processing the Dynamic Calibration Signal of Pressure Sensor
Dynamic calibration is one of the important ways to acquire the dynamic performance parameters of a pressure sensor. This research focuses on the processing method for the output of calibrated pressure sensor, and mainly attempts to solve the problem of extracting the true information of step response under strong interference noise. A dynamic calibration system based on a shock tube is establi...

One of the most important issues when working with energetic materials is their initiation. Of the various methods of energetic materials initiation in the military and civilian industries, shock initiation is of particular importance. Numerical and simulation study of the shock initiation of condensed phase explosives is related to models called burning rate models, which describe the conversi...
متن کاملDynamic calibration of pressure sensors - French metrology special feature
Pressure measurement in non-equilibrium conditions is required in many applications. For example, pressure must be monitored in the cylinders of an engine to study combustion phenomena, in an injection moulding press to study a moulding process, in a Pitot tube to determine the speed of an aircraft, or in a catheter to determine blood pressure. In applications like these the pressure quantity i...
