Bonded foil pressure transducers

The design of bonded-foil pressure transducers is discussed, with consideration given to individual components of both the electrical and the mechanical sections of the bonded-foil pressure transducers, as well as to the temperature control and the accuracy specification of these devices. Particular attention is given to applications of bonded foil pressure transducers, which include solid and liquid rocket engine testing for fuel and exhaust pressures, fuel and oil pressure monitoring on jet engines, and nuclear underground safety system pressure monitoring and nuclear test monitoring. A diagram of a transducer cutaway view is included.
