Effect of thermal processes on the accuracy of precision fiber-optic inertial sensors

Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

A mathematical model of thermal processes and temperature errors is constructed for a promising sensor to determine the angular position and angular velocity of moving objects—a fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG). Methodological, algorithmic, and program supports are developed making it possible to carry out an automatic investigation of the functioning of an FOG exposed to temperature effects. Computational experiments and computer analysis of thermal processes and thermal drift are performed for specific design versions of the FOG, and recommendations for decrease in the temperature errors of the FOG are developed.
