Pressure Measurement and Calibration Unit- Engineering Lab Training Systems

EXERCISES AND PRACTICAL POSSIBILITIES Some Practical Possibilities of the Unit: 1.-    Study the concept of pressure. 2.-  Study of the concepts of measurement and calibration (gauge and absolute pressures, zero error, non-linearity, scale error, conversion of arbitrary scale into energy units). 3.-   Study of pressure scales. 4.-   Study of the function of a dead-weight pressure calibrator. 5.- Study of the operation of a Bourdon type manometer. 6.-  Study of the characteristic behaviour of a Bourdon type manometer. 7.- Calibration of a Bourdon type manometer in engineering units. 8.-  Calibration of a Bourdon type manometer in arbitrary units (angular displacement of needle). 9.- Study of the characteristic behaviour of a pressure sensor. 10.- Calibration of a pressure sensor and signal conditioning circuit in engineering units. 11.-  Calibration of a pressure sensor (voltage output from sensor). 12.-  Study of the sources of error in measurement and calibration (signal conditioning, display resolution; wear, friction and backlash, etc.). 13.-  Study of calibration of conditioning circuits and display using a reference signal.
