Piezoresistive (diaphragm-based) differential pressure sensors based on silicon comprise a thin silicon diaphragm in which resistors (connected together in a Wheatstone bridge) are lodged. If there is ...

The engine test stands used with advanced data-acquisition systems require a different type of pressure sensor than those used in the past. Engine hydraulics and pneumatics operate faster and often, ...

Some of the applications mentioned here require a room that maintains a higher or lower pressure compared to the surrounding ambient environment. If the isolated room has greater air pressure, it is ...

Highly accurate pressure sensors with long-term stability are necessary for fuel efficiency and reduction of harmful emissions. Increasingly demanding requirements of piezoresistive sensors include ...

The flow of all fluids, whether liquid or gas, will have one of three states: laminar, turbulent, and transitional. This article discusses flow principles and pressure-based flow measurement. Laminar ...
