Towards A Process For Calibrating 1-Mhz Pressure-Fluctuation Sensors With Small Pressure Steps In A Shock Tube
Abstract
The primary objective of this research is to develop calibration techniques for calibrate pressure sensors at frequencies above 50 kHz. A high frequency calibration methodology is needed to better characterize the precision and accuracy of 2nd mode wave measurements in ground T&E facilities and in flight. Proposal objective 5 involves using these calibrated sensors to measure instability-wave growth in the Purdue Mach-6 quiet tunnel. There is also a provision for fielding additional instruments at DoD, NASA, DoE, and other facilities to demonstrate the effectiveness of using calibrated sensors for these types of measurements and further advance our scientific understanding of instability wave formation at these facilities.
