Pressure Gauges01:20

Pressure Gauges

Most pressure gauges, like those on scuba tanks, are calibrated to read zero at atmospheric pressure. Readings from such gauges are called the gauge pressure, which is the pressure relative to atmospheric pressure. When the pressure inside the tank exceeds atmospheric pressure, the gauge reports a positive value. Some gauges are designed to measure negative pressure. For example, many physics experiments must take place in a vacuum chamber, a rigid chamber from which some of the air is pumped...
Measurement of Fluid Pressure01:16

Measurement of Fluid Pressure

Fluid pressure is commonly measured using devices called manometers, which rely on liquid columns to indicate pressure differences. The height of a liquid column in a manometer reflects the pressure exerted by the fluid, providing a simple yet effective means of measurement. Different types of manometers serve specific purposes based on their configurations and the type of fluids involved.
A basic form of manometer is the piezometer, a vertical tube open at the top and filled with the same...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Geophysics

Background:

  • Oil-field applications require robust pressure sensors capable of withstanding extreme conditions.
  • Existing sensors may not meet the stringent accuracy, resolution, and operating range demands of downhole environments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a dual-mode thickness-shear quartz pressure sensor for oil-field use.
  • To achieve a wide operating pressure range (0-103.42 MPa) and temperature range (-10 to +175°C).
  • To attain high calibration accuracy (6894.8 Pa) and resolution (68.95 Pa).

Main Methods:

  • Investigated doubly rotated quartz cuts with piezoelectric coupling to C-modes of vibration.
  • Conducted theoretical studies and design considerations for sensor development.
  • Developed and experimentally evaluated two sensor designs: SBTC-cut cylindrical and a special resonator design (SPA).

Main Results:

  • Achieved pressure sensitivity of approximately 145 Hz/MPa at 175°C.
  • Prototypes based on the SPA design demonstrated static and dynamic performance.
  • The SPA design operates around 5 MHz without activity dips.

Conclusions:

  • The developed dual-mode quartz pressure sensor meets the demanding requirements for oil-field applications.
  • The SPA design shows promise for high-performance pressure sensing in harsh environments.
  • Further laboratory evaluation confirmed the static and dynamic capabilities of the SPA prototypes.
