Impulse Pressure Transducers: Applicability Criteria

  • MECHANICAL MEASUREMENTS
  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

The paper considers a problem associated with the identification and verification of criteria for selecting a transducer depending on the expected input-criteria for the applicability of impulse (dynamic) pressure transducers on the basis of their dynamic characteristics. In this work, principles applied in the field of impulse pressure measurement are systematized. In addition, the dynamic characteristics of several impulse (dynamic) pressure transducers are experimentally studied, their transfer functions are obtained, and the responses of these transducers to a set input are simulated. An experimental method for obtaining a transfer function using a pneumatic shock tube and appropriate software solutions is proposed. The study confirms the lack of a single universal applicability criterion for impulse (dynamic) pressure transducers depending on the expected input. The obtained results can be used when selecting the required transducer to measure impulse (dynamic) pressure for various scientific and technical applications.
