International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 23-26, 2000 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / This presentation summarizes a study characterizing strain gages and pressure transducers used to
measure the fluid pressure within aircraft hydraulic lines. A series of laboratory calibrations and finite
element analyses was performed to demonstrate the quality of data from both pressure transducers and
strain gages under variations in both temperature and external strains on the hydraulic lines. Strain gages
showed a marked susceptibility to external strains on hydraulic lines, and wide variations in
susceptibility to temperature changes. Pressure transducers were found to be relatively immune to both
conditions. It is recommended that strain gages be used for trend data only.
