Dynamic Pressure Measurement and Uncertainty Analysis Using a Piezoelectric Transducer for a Combustion Engine

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper analyses the uncertainty of pressure measurements in-cylinder and in injection pipe conducted during the studies of a compression ignition engine. Type A and type B evaluations were used to determine the uncertainties of the results. The results are presented for the engine running on diesel or bio-fuel and operating under full load conditions. The results of normality tests provide grounds to reject H0 in some cases. Slightly lower standard uncertainty of the maximum pressure measurement calculated using type A evaluation were acquired for the engine running on bio-fuel.
