Optimal Design of Sensitive Structure in Gas Pendulum Tilt Sensor

Article Preview

Abstract:

Optimal design of sensitive structure in gas pendulum tilt sensor was discussed. Using ANSYS software, fluid fields produced by heat source of the sensor in center were simulated. According simulated temperature field which is the key sensitive factor of the tilt sensor, optimal design of sensitive structure was discussed further. The results show that sensitivity of sensor is better when the distance between sensor wire and heat source is 0.2 R or 0.3R (R is radius of chamber). In respect to vertical place, experiment and theory show sensor has better sensitivity and linearity when installing angle is 60 ̊ while the horizontal distance between sensor wire and heat source is 0.3R.
