Neues Sekundärnormal für die Kalibrierung von dynamischen Drucksensoren

Recent research activities in dynamic pressure metrology have been mainly focusing on the development of primary standards like the shock tube or drop-weight apparatus to establish traceability to SI. However, these calibration facilities require a high level of expertise leading to elaborate and time-consuming calibrations. The development of secondary calibrators, based on the reference sensor principle, offering efficient and cost-effective calibrations is essential to meet the needs for industry and to disseminate the dynamic pressure quantity to a wide end-user community. This paper reports a novel secondary calibrator for dynamic pressure measurements up to 300 bar with an expanded uncertainty of about 3.0 %. A heating option enable calibrations at elevated temperatures up to 200 °C making it an ideal solution for convenient calibrations of dynamic pressure transducers used for measurement in internal combustion engine applications.
