Electrothermal-Chemical Gun Chamber Pressure Measurement System Based on Digital Optical Fiber Transmission

Abstract

There were problems of strong electromagnetic interfere (EMI) and floating of ground potential when the electrothermal-chemical gun (ETCG) was launched. EMI seriously affected the chamber pressure measurement, and affected the accurateness of data and the security of apparatus. The chamber pressure testing technology was put forward which adopted the field testing technique with digital storage and the digital optical fiber transmission technique. The on-site storage pressure gauge and multilayer electromagnetic shielding structure was designed. Test data real-time transmission and remote reappear are realized by using high speed digital optical transceiver module and optical fiber. This testing technology effectively solved the EMI problem, improved the reliability and safety of chamber pressure measurement. The test data provide a basis for research of interior ballistic properties of ETCG. This testing technology can be widely applied to the parameters measurement with strong electromagnetic interfere.
