NIST is developing a new dynamic pressure measurement infrastructure to support advanced manufacturing and other applications. The project will establish traceable dynamic pressure standards using optical technologies and frequency metrology, enabling microsecond-level pressure measurements.
Key points:
– Current pressure measurement infrastructure lacks traceable dynamic pressure standards
– NIST is developing a photonics-based measurement platform using fast scanning laser absorption spectroscopy
– Research includes investigating dynamic pressure sources and characterizing sensor response
– Applications include industrial processes, transportation, medical devices, and environmental monitoring
The new infrastructure will provide precise, traceable dynamic pressure measurements, supporting advanced manufacturing and enabling new applications in various fields.
