Published Paper Details:

The research paper aims at developing a product which supports different types of pressure sensors, absolute, differential and gauge. The product is used shall be used as a ground servicing equipment calibrated in lab. This product shall be used to validate or cross verify the aircraft pressure system. The product will not be mounted on the aircraft. Product being designed facilitates the display of pressure being applied currently and calibration. The hardware can be configured for three different applications as mentioned below - PSTE (Pitot Static Test Equipment) - FTLT (Fuel Tank Leak Tester) - ASI (Air Speed Indicator) The board can be configured to act as PSTE, FTLT or ASI by burning individual software on the IC for individual applications. Calibration procedure for each of these applications differs a little bit based on what type of pressure sensor(s) is (are) connected. Primary data is pressure data in PSI and rest all derived data and pressure unit conversion. (Calibration of sensor is stored and displays the applied pressure). There will be mathematical air data calculation, air data unit conversion and pressure unit conversion. The product has LCD display for user friendly messages for measurements/calibration etc. Four keys are provided for configuration/calibration.
