Extending the Traceability of Dynamic Calibration to the High-Pressure Regime Using a Shock Tube

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In this paper, a development of the shock tube at RISE, the National Metrology Institute of Sweden, to extend its capability to the high-pressure regime is presented. The shock tube was developed to be operated in three different configurations: conventional, with an amplification system and with a converging cone. In the conventional and with the amplification system, the well-established shock tube analytical solution was used to calculate the reference pressure, while in the converging cone, a numerical simulation was applied. To demonstrate the capabilities and limitations of each configuration, a device under test (DUT) was characterized. The results show a good agreement in the DUT dynamic response calculated using the three configurations in the overlap regions between them. The uncertainty in measurements was estimated for each configuration. The three configurations complement each other to reach a pressure range from 0.1 MPa to 25 MPa and a frequency range from 0.5 kHz to 500 kHz.
