  • Characterization, Modeling of Piezoelectric Pressure Transducer for Facilitation of Field Calibration Zahra Pakdel
    Characterization, Modeling of Piezoelectric Pressure Transducer for Facilitation of Field Calibration Zahra Pakdel Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in Electrical Computer Engineering APPROVED: Pushkin Kachroo Douglas K. Lindner Lynn A. Abbott May 21, 2007 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Charge Amplifier, Electromechanical Sensor, Piezoelectric Effect © 2007, Zahra Pakdel Characterization, Modeling of Piezoelectric Pressure Transducer for Facilitation of Field Calibration Zahra Pakdel ABSTRACT Currently in the marketplace, one of the important goals is to improve quality, and reliability. There is great interest in the engineering community to develop a field calibration technique concerning piezoelectric pressure sensor to reduce cost and improve reliability. This paper summarizes the algorithm used to characterize and develop a model for a piezoelectric pressure transducer. The basic concept of the method is to excite the sensor using an electric force to capture the signature characteristic of the pressure transducer. This document presents the frequency curve fitted model based on the high frequency excitation of the piezoelectric pressure transducer. It also presents the time domain model of the sensor. The time domain response of the frequency curve fitted model obtained in parallel with the frequency response of the time domain model and the comparison results are discussed. Moreover, the relation between model parameters and sensitivity extensively is investigated. In order to detect damage and monitor the condition of the sensor on line the resonance frequency comparison method is presented. The relationship between sensitivity and the resonance frequency characteristic of the sensor extensively is investigated.

The brake booster is completely). located between the brake pedal and the master cylinder. Muscular activated brakes are mostly found on motorcycles Figure 1 shows a simplified schematic of a vacuum brake and very light vehicles. The driver's effort on the hand lever or booster. pedal is directly transmitted via a hydraulic link to the brake When no brake pressure is applied on the push rod (brake pads. pedal side), the air intake valve is closed and the vacuum Power assisted brakes are found on most passenger cars valve open. Thus, both the vacuum and working chambers are and some light vehicle trucks. In this case, the driver's effort is at the same pressure, typically around -70 kPa (70 kPa below amplified by a brake booster to increase the force applied to atmospheric pressure).
