Abstract

Combined pressure measuring system (CPMS), which is mainly used for measuring deep-sea larger pressure and its small fluctuation pressure, is studied. First, the working principle of the CPMS is introduced. Second, the mathematical model of the CPMS is established. Third, the influence of the cross-sectional area of the piston, the equivalent mass of the piston, the diving speed, the cross-sectional diameter of the compensator piston, the air content of the liquid medium, and the small fluctuation pressure on the measurement performance of the CPMS is analyzed using the simulation model. Then, the design principle of the system is summarized. Finally, the test platform is built. The results show that the dynamic pressure is not more than 0.025 bar when the pressure change speed is 0.2 bar/s, the pressure is 2.8 × 10 −3 bar under 20 bar, thereby verifying the validity and accuracy of the measurement method and providing theoretical basis and reference for the design and optimization of the measurement system.
