Description du projet/ Project
Description
This project is divided in two sub-projects:
Pressure MEMS sensors for GTE
applications and Temperature MEMS arrays
for GTE applications. This last portion
is already completed. The effort over
the past 6 months was directed mainly
towards the MEMS demonstrator. A
detection system comprising two dynamic
pressure sensors and two temperature
sensors in a redundant configuration
have been built in 10 prototypes. The
design and the realization of the sensor
did follow the specs of the product
produced by PWC. The 10 systems have
been tested to temperature and
vibrations according to the specs
provided by PWC. One of the system was
installed on the engine (bell mouth) in
the test rig and used to measure the fan
RPM against the present measurement
system that is quite heavy. A
significant accomplishment was possible
through the excellent collaboration
among PWC, Concordia and ETS. The team
has requested a six mount delay without
any budget change to complete task 11:
Implement the micro sensors for testing
on the ground equipment. And task 12:
Refinement of the design, packaging and
test which is completed at 80%. Two
international collaborations where
developped during that project, one with
Louvain-la-Neuve and one with The
Catholic University of Brussels both
Belgium.
Objectifs/ Objectives
La
recherche fournira à l'industrie des
microcapteurs MEMS pour améliorer la
performance et la sûreté de turbines à
gaz. En particulier :
prouver le concept de systèmes de
contrôle et de suivi de turbines à gaz
basé sur les MEMS par l'intégration de
systèmes existants;
développer un capteur de pression pour
mesures dynamiques à température élevée;
configurer des capteurs de température
pour le suivi des conditions de bon
fonctionnement ou pour des essais de
développement.
The objectives of the
research are to provide the industrial
partners with MEMS-based microsensors
that will enhance the performance and
safety of gas turbine jet engines. In
particular:
prove the concept of MEMS based control
and monitoring systems for gas jet
engines through the integration of
existent systems;
develop a pressure sensor to measure the
dynamic pressure in a high temperature
environment;
implement temperature sensors for health
monitoring or development testing
purposes.
