A temperature sensor with improved performance and reliability for use at low Mach number and density
Abstract
The USAF's new Aeropropulsion System Test Facility (ASTF) will be dedicated to the testing of large jet engines under controlled flight conditions to yield highly accurate and reliable measurements of performance parameters, even in simulated hostile environments involving high gust loads and ice particles. Attention is presently given to the design characteristics and performance capabilities of temperature sensors for the ASTF that are compatible with control requirements; the high degree of coupling that exists among accuracy, response, and reliability requirements is emphasized.
