This project aims to develop the fundamental requirements needed to provide metrological traceability for the measurement of pressure, force and torque under dynamic conditions where dynamic mechanical measurement is important (e.g. automotive industry, aircraft safety, material testing, manufacturers of sensors etc).
- Impact Through Dissemination
- Validated traceability to the SI will be available for the first time
- Documented procedures and guidelines for the measurement uncertainty
- Certification of these dynamic mechanical measurements Project web site:
WP 2: Dynamic Pressure
The aim of this work package is to develop a measurement infrastructure providing industrial users with traceability to primary dynamic pressure standards.
Task 2.2: Effect of different transmission media on dynamic pressure transducer performance
The assumption is usually made that pressure transducers will perform differently when dynamic pressure is transmitted to them through different media, as a result of the greater viscosity / damping of liquid than gas.
Task 2.3: Secondary dynamic pressure standards
The aim of this task is to develop secondary standards that are capable of generating dynamic pressures of the required magnitude and frequency to calibrate industrial transducers against reference ones that have been calibrated within primary standard systems.
