Temperature Compensation Algorithm for Hydraulic System Pressure Control

In this paper the control mechanism of solenoid valve is analyzed,which shows the solenoid valve control is actually the control of coil current.The response characteristic of coil current is related to coil inductance and resistance.The coil resistance is influenced greatly by the ambient temperature and the self-heating of coil,which affects the control precision of coil current.First,considering the heat dissipation mode of coil,the coil temperature model is established from the perspective of heat conduction,and a temperature compensation algorithm for hydraulic system pressure control is put forward.Then the hardware-in-the-loop testbed is set up by using the dSPACE platform,carrying out wheel cylinder pressurization tests with inlet valve fully opened at-40℃ and 20℃,and testing the actual pressure of wheel cylinder with the target pressures at-40℃ and 6 000 kPa/s(pressurization rate).The results show that the pressure control temperature compensation algorithm proposed in this paper accurately corrects the influence of resistance temperature drift on the response accuracy of wheel cylinder pressure.After the correction,the pressure difference is less than 500 kPa,which can meet the control accuracy requirements of solenoid valve,enriching the linear control characteristic of solenoid valve.

HIGH TEMPERATURE DISPLACEMENT SENSOR

A high temperature displacement sensor based on the principle of eddy-current is investigated. A new temperature compensation technique by using eddy-current effect is presented to satisfy the special requirement at high temperature up to 550℃. The experiment shows that the temperature compensation technique leads to good temperature stability for the sensors. The variation of the sensitivity as well as the temperature drift of the sensor with temperature compensation technique is only about 7.4% and 90-350 mV at 550 ℃ compared with that at room temperature, and that of the sensor without temperature compensation technique is about 31.2% and 2-3 V at 550 ℃ compared with that at room temperature. A new dynamic calibration method for the eddy-current displacement sensor is presented, which is very easy to be realized especially in high frequency and at high temperatures. The high temperature displacement sensors developed are successfully used at temperature up to 550 ℃ in a magnetic bearing system for more than 100 h.

Experimental Study of Effect of Temperature Variations on the Impedance Signature of PZT Sensors for Fatigue Crack Detection

Structural health monitoring(SHM)is recognized as an efficient tool to interpret the reliability of a wide variety of infrastructures.To identify the structural abnormality by utilizing the electromechanical coupling property of piezoelectric transducers,the electromechanical impedance(EMI)approach is preferred.However,in real-time SHM applications,the monitored structure is exposed to several varying environmental and operating conditions(EOCs).The previous study has recognized the temperature variations as one of the serious EOCs that affect the optimal performance of the damage inspection process.In this framework,an experimental setup is developed in current research to identify the presence of fatigue crack in stainless steel(304)beam using EMI approach and estimate the effect of temperature variations on the electrical impedance of the piezoelectric sensors.A regular series of experiments are executed in a controlled temperature environment(25°C–160°C)using 202 V1 Constant Temperature Drying Oven Chamber(Q/TBXR20-2005).It has been observed that the dielectric constantð"33 TÞwhich is recognized as the temperature-dependent constant of PZT sensor has sufficiently influenced the electrical impedance signature.Moreover,the effective frequency shift(EFS)approach is optimized in term of significant temperature compensation for the current impedance signature of PZT sensor relative to the reference signature at the extended frequency bandwidth of the developed measurement system with better outcomes as compared to the previous literature work.Hence,the current study also deals efficiently with the critical issue of the width of the frequency band for temperature compensation based on the frequency shift in SHM.The results of the experimental study demonstrate that the proposed methodology is qualified for the damage inspection in real-time monitoring applications under the temperature variations.It is capable to exclude one of the major reasons of false fault diagnosis by compensating the consequence of elevated temperature at extended frequency bandwidth in SHM.

Temperature compensation method for low cost three-axis MEMS digital angular rate gyroscopes

In recent years,a large number of small volume,low cost micro electro mechanical systems（MEMS）digital three-axis angular rate gyroscopes have been developed and widely used in civil and military fields.However,these kinds of gyroscopes have poor performances in initial zero-bias,temperature drift,In-Run bias stability,bias repeatability,etc.,their output errors need to be compensated before being used.Based on a lot of experiments,the temperature drift and the initial zero-bias are the major error sources in the MEMS gyroscopes output data.Due to the poor repeatability of temperature drift,the temperature compensation coefficients need to be recalculated every time before using.In order to recalculate parameters of the temperature compensation model quickly,a 1st-order polynomial model of temperature is established,then a forgetting factor recursive least squares estimator will be adopted to identify the model parameters in real time.Static and dynamic experimental data shows that this method removed/compensated the temperature drift and initial zero-bias from the output of the gyroscopes effectively.

The dynamic compensation temperature in a kinetic spin-5/2 Ising model on a hexagonal lattice

We present a study of the dynamic behavior of a two-sublattice spin-5/2 Ising model with bilinear and crystal-field interactions in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field on alternating layers of a hexagonal lattice by using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics.The lattice is formed by alternate layers of spins σ=5/2 and S=5/2.We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the mean-field dynamic equations.First,we investigate the time variations of the average sublattice magnetizations to find the phases in the system and then the thermal behavior of the dynamic sublattice magnetizations to characterize the nature（first-or second-order） of the phase transitions and to obtain the dynamic phase transition（DPT） points.We also study the thermal behavior of the dynamic total magnetization to find the dynamic compensation temperature and to determine the type of the dynamic compensation behavior.We present the dynamic phase diagrams,including the dynamic compensation temperatures,in nine different planes.The phase diagrams contain seven different fundamental phases,thirteen different mixed phases,in which the binary and ternary combination of fundamental phases and the compensation temperature or the L-type behavior strongly depend on the interaction parameters.

Continuous Deformation Monitoring by Polymermatrix Carbon Fiber Sensitive Layer

Composite made of short-cut carbon fiber mat and vinyl ester resin was observed to be an effective sensor for tensile strain up to 6 000με. Based on its strain sensitivity, a skin-like sensitive layer which can continuously cover the structural surface to sense strain in large area was developed. The sensitive layer was applied to continuously monitor the deformation of a simply supported beam. The result indicates that the fractional change in electrical resistance of the sensitive layer reversibly reflects the beam deformation in each section and describes the distribution of the average strain of the beam. The effect of temperature change on the monitoring was studied by monitoring tests conducted at different temperatures ranging from 20 to 80 ℃, which reveals temperature sensitivity in the sensitive layer and the temperature dependence of the piezoresistive behavior when the temperature exceeds 50 ℃. By the application of differential conaection principle, a method for temperature compensation was established and the gauge factor for the monitoring was dramatically increased. This method was verified experimentally.

This paper investigates the effects of material and dimension parameters on the frequency splitting,frequency drift,and quality factor(Q)of aluminium nitride(AlN)-on-n-doped/pure silicon(Si)microelectromechanical systems(MEMS)disk resonators through analysis and simulation.These parameters include the crystallographic orientation,dopant,substrate thickness,and temperature.The resonators operate in the elliptical,higher order,and flexural modes.The simulation results show that i)the turnover points of the resonators exist at 55°C,-50°C,40°C,and-10°C for n-doped silicon with the doping concentration of 2×1019 cm-3 and the Si thickness of 3.5μm,and these points are shifted with the substrate thickness and mode variations;ii)compared with pure Si,the modal-frequency splitting for n-doped Si is higher and increases from 5%to 10%for all studied modes;iii)Q of the resonators depends on the temperature and dopant.Therefore,the turnover,modal-frequency splitting,and Q of the resonators depend on the thickness and material of the substrate and the temperature.This work offers an analysis and design platform for high-performance MEMS gyroscopes as well as oscillators in terms of the temperature compensation by n-doped Si.

The designed BGR provides a reference voltage of 500 mV,with measured TC of 10. 1 × 10^（-6）/℃.

Investigation of Strain-Temperature Cross-Sensitivity of FBG Strain Sensors Embedded Onto Different Substrates

The strain-temperature cross-sensitivity problem easily occurs in the engineering strain monitoring of the self-sensing embedded with fiber Bragg grating(FBG)sensors.In this work,a theoretical investigation of the strain-temperature cross-sensitivity has been performed using the temperature reference grating method.To experimentally observe and theoretically verify the problem,the substrate materials,the preloading technique,and the FBG initial central wavelength were taken as main parameters.And a series of sensitivity coefficients calibration tests and temperature compensation tests have been designed and carried out.It was found that when the FBG sensors were embedded on different substrates,their coefficients of the temperature sensitivity were significantly changed.Besides,the larger the coefficients of thermal expansion(CTE)of substrates were,the higher the temperature sensitivity coefficients would be.On the other hand,the effect of the preloading technique and FBG initial wavelength was negligible on both the strain monitoring and temperature compensation.In the case of similar substrates,we did not observe any difference between temperature sensitivity coefficients of the temperature compensation FBG with one free end or two free ends.The curves of the force along with temperature were almost overlapped with minor differences(less than 1%)gained by FBG sensors and pressure sensors,which verified the accuracy of the temperature compensation method.We suggest that this work can provide efficient solutions to the strain-temperature cross-sensitivity for engineering strain monitoring with the self-sensing element embedded with FBG sensors.

This paper describes an optical voltage transducer （OVT） for the 35 kV electric power system based on modular interference in dual-mode highly elliptical-core polarization maintenance fiber （E-Core PMF）. The temperature and environmental perturb- bation can be compensated automatically. In the scheme, a quartz crystal cylinder wrapped with highly elliptical-core fiber plays the role of voltage sensor head. The two interference output lobes＇ intensity from the E-core PMF is modulated with the converse piezoelectric effect of quartz crystal. A PZT wrapped with E-core PMF at ground potential serves as the static modular phase difference control and temperature compensation unit. The experiment results indicate that the OVT designed in this paper has satisfying performance and could successfully rejects the temperature perturbation.

Temperature Bias Drift Phase-Based Compensation for a MEMS Accelerometer with Stiffness-Tuning Double-Sided Parallel Plate Capacitors

This paper reports an approach of in-operation temperature bias drift compensation based on phase-based calibration for a stiffness-tunable MEMS accelerometer with double-sided parallel plate(DSPP)capacitors.The temperature drifts of the components of the accelerometer are characterized,and analytical models are built on the basis of the measured drift results.Results reveal that the temperature drift of the acceleration output bias is dominated by the sensitive mechanical stiffness.An out-of-bandwidth AC stimulus signal is introduced to excite the accelerometer,and the interference with the acceleration measurement is minimized.The demodulated phase of the excited response exhibits a monotonic relationship with the effective stiffness of the accelerometer.Through the proposed online compensation approach,the temperature drift of the effective stiffness can be detected by the demodulated phase and compensated in real time by adjusting the stiffness-tuning voltage of DSPP capacitors.The temperature drift coefficient(TDC)of the accelerometer is reduced from 0.54 to 0.29 mg/℃,and the Allan variance bias instability of about 2.8μg is not adversely affected.Meanwhile,the pull-in resulting from the temperature drift of the effective stiffness can be prevented.TDC can be further reduced to 0.04 mg/℃through an additional offline calibration based on the demodulated carrier phase representing the temperature drift of the readout circuit.

Packaging and Temperature Compensation of Fiber Bragg Grating for Strain Sensing： A Survey

During last decades, sensor elements based on the fiber Bragg grating （FBG） have been widely studied and developed due to the advantages of immunity to electromagnetic interference, compact size, high precision, and so on. The FBG itself is sensitive to axial strain and temperature variation directly and can indirectly measure these complex physical parameters, such as pressure, displacement, and vibration, by using some specially designed elastic structures to convert them into the axial strain of the FBG. Whether the FBG is fixed on the measured object to measure the strain directly or fixed on an elastic structure body to measure other physical quantities, these types of FBGs could be collectively called as strain sensing FBGs. The packaging of the FBG has important influence on FBG characteristics that directly affect the measurement accuracy, such as strain transfer, temperature characteristic, and spectral shape. This paper summarizes the packaging methods and corresponding temperature compensation methods of the currently reported strain sensing FBGs, focusing especially on fully pasted FBG, pre-stretched FBG with double-end fixed, and metallic packaging. Furthermore, the advantages and drawbacks of different packaging methods have been analyzed, which can provide a reference for future researches.

Pressure sensors are the essential equipments in the field of pressure measurement. In this work, we propose a temperature compensation fiber Bragg grating （FBG） pressure sensor based on the plane diaphragm. The plane diaphragm and pressure sensitivity FBG （PS FBG） are used as the pressure sensitive components, and the temperature compensation FBG （TC FBG） is used to improve the temperature cross-sensitivity.

The measurement principle and theoretical analysis of the mathematical relationship between the FBG central wavelength shift and pressure of the sensor are introduced. The sensitivity and measure range can be adjusted by utilizing the different materials and sizes of the diaphragm to accommodate different measure environments. The performance experiments are carried out, and the results indicate that the pressure sensitivity of the sensor is 35.7pm/MPa in a range from 0MPa to 50MPa and has good linearity with a linear fitting correlation coefficient of 99.95%. In addition, the sensor has the advantages of low frequency chirp and high stability, which can be used to measure pressure in mining engineering, civil engineering, or other complex environment.

A highly sensitive and temperature-compensated methane sensor based on a liquid-infiltrated photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is proposed. Two bigger holes near the core area are coated with a methane-sensitive compound film, and specific cladding air holes are infiltrated into the liquid material to form new defective channels.

A Compensation Model of Continuous Temperature Measurement for Molten Steel in Tundish

A compensation model has been proposed to reduce errors caused by the immersion depth of the sensor and the time lag of continuous temperature measurement for molten steel in tundish, which is based on the limited data fitting method and data fusion technology. According to the heat transfer.analysis of sensor, the thermal model has been bulit to determine the temperature variation function. The parameters of the compensation model are recognized by generic algorithm, which combines the determine function, the molten steel mass in the ladle and pouring time. The processing of error compensation is divided into three stages： tracking, holding and compensation. When the processing is stable, the measured temperature error is small, and the measured temperature is regarded as accurate val- ue and tracked. For the end of pouring stage of the ladle, the temperature error is caused by the immersion depth of the sensor, and the measured temperature before sharp decreasing is considered as real temperature and held. For the temperature increasing stage after ladle changed, the measured temperature is compensated online. The application results show that the error between the compensation temperatures and the actual ones have been decreased to ±2 ℃, and the time lag could be shortened from 3-5 min to 40 s by applying this model.
