Abstract

This project has five specific objectives: To provide traceability for dynamic pressure and temperature through development of measurement standards and validated calibration procedures; To quantify the effects of influencing quantities on the response of dynamic pressure and temperature sensors, in order to determine the appropriate calibration procedures and measurement uncertainties for industrial measurements; To develop new measurement methods and sensors for measuring dynamic pressure and temperature in demanding industrial applications, and to demonstrate the improved accuracy and reliability obtained with those; To validate all of the methods and sensors developed in this project through demonstrations in selected industrial applications; and To ensure by close engagement with industry, that the developed calibration and measurement techniques and technology are adopted by them. The challenge is that in many industrial applications pressure and temperature measurements are performed under dynamically changing conditions. The aim of this project is to improve the accuracy and reliability of pressure and temperature measurements in these challenging conditions. A European joint research project named Development of measurement and calibration techniques for dynamic pressures and temperatures (shortname DynPT) started in the summer 2018.

Highlights

  • The European joint research project named Development of measurement and calibration techniques for dynamic pressures and temperatures started in May 2018

  • As the dynamic and static pressure characteristics of sensors may differ significantly, this calibration procedure can result in errors

  • Dynamic temperature measurements by itself are vital for many industrial applications

Summary

Introduction

The European joint research project named Development of measurement and calibration techniques for dynamic pressures and temperatures (shortname DynPT) started in May 2018. The overall objective of this project is to improve the accuracy and reliability of pressure and temperature measurements in dynamically changing conditions. Establishing SI traceability for these measurements through development of dynamic measurement standards and methods, and characterised sensor technologies including means of estimating measurement uncertainties in real process conditions, will significantly improve the quality of measurements and support the innovation potential and competitiveness of European industry. To improve accuracy and reliability of results, the sensors need to be calibrated at conditions which better corresponds to their actual use. In order to improve pressure sensor characteristics, fast and reliable temperature measurements are needed to compensate temperature effects on the sensing pressure element. The realistic achievable level of uncertainty needs to be estimated
