The ship electric field has become a new physical field which is widely concerned at home and abroad in recent years. For the research of ship electric field, one of the most effective methods is to measure it underwater.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to develop a monocular visual measurement system for autonomous aerial refueling (AAR) for unmanned aerial vehicle, which can process images from an infrared camera to estimate the pose of the drogue in the tanker with high accuracy and real-time performance.Design/methodology/approachMethods and techniques for marker detection, feature matching and pose estimation have been designed and implemented in the visual measurement system.FindingsThe simple blob detection (SBD) method is adopted, which outperforms the Laplacian of Gaussian method. And a novel noise-elimination algorithm is proposed for excluding the noise points. Besides, a novel feature matching algorithm based on perspective transformation is proposed. Comparative experimental results indicated the rapidity and effectiveness of the proposed methods.Practical implicationsThe visual measurement system developed in this paper can be applied to estimate the pose of the drogue with a fast speed and high accuracy and it is a feasible measurement strategy which will considerably increase the autonomy and reliability for AAR.Originality/valueThe SBD method is used to detect the features and a novel noise-elimination algorithm is proposed. Besides, a novel feature matching algorithm based on perspective transformation is proposed which is robust and accurate.

Novel Concept

In this paper, a novel design of a surface topography measurement system is proposed, to address the challenge of accurate measurement in a relatively large area. This system was able to achieve nanometer-scale accuracy in a measurement range of 100 mm × 100 mm. The high accuracy in a relatively large area was achieved by implementing two concepts: (1) A static coordinate system was configured to minimize the Abbe errors. (2) A differential measurement configuration was developed by setting up a confocal sensor and a film interferometry module to separate the motion error. In order to accommodate the differential measurement probes from both sides of the central stage and ensure the system rigidity with balanced supports, separate linear guides were introduced in this system. Therefore, the motion Degree of Freedom (DoF) was analyzed in order to address the challenge of an over-constrained mechanism due to multiple kinematic pairs. An optimal configuration and a quick assembly process were proposed accordingly. The experimental results presented in this paper showed that the proposed modular measurement system was able to achieve 10 nm accuracy in measuring the surface roughness and 100 nm accuracy in measuring the step height in the range of 100 mm × 100 mm. In summary, the novel concept of this study is the build of a high-accuracy system with conventional mechanical components.

Temperature Measurement System

In 1999, ITP (Industria de Turbopropulsores, S.A.) launched a wide on-going research program focusing on new technologies to provide significant improvements in Low Pressure Turbines cost and weight. As consequence of the new technologies the experience limits are exceeded and new unknown concepts, like high stage loading turbines, must be explored and then a wide experimental work is required for validation purposes. Cold flow single stage rigs in high-speed facilities were selected by ITP as main vehicle to carry out the experimental validation. Single stage Low Pressure Turbine rigs have low-pressure ratio and power consumption, therefore efficiency predictions based on temperature drop require high accuracy thermocouple measurement systems (precision uncertainties lower than ±50 mK), if small efficiency variations must be captured. In this paper, a detailed uncertainty analysis is introduced and a temperature measurement system that allows achieving such high measurement accuracy is evaluated and described. Type T thermocouples are proposed for use in the range 0°C to 80°C, which are individually calibrated. The procedure followed for this calibration is presented and how is possible to achieve a precision of 30 mK. It is also shown as conventional UTR based on metal plates can behave as good as thermal baths in terms of temperature uniformity and errors, with the adequate isolation and temperature reference calibration. The conventional data recording and voltage measurement systems are experimentally evaluated, and they are found as main source of temperature errors. Although following some recommendations the precision of those systems can be improved, it is experimentally probed and therefore suggested the use of high accuracy voltmeter with a commutation unit to reduce significantly the temperature uncertainty. Finally a miniature Kiel Shroud is proposed and aerodynamically characterised in a high-speed facility. Mach, Reynolds number, yaw, blockage and manufacturing tolerance impact on recovery factor can be inferred from those results.

Abstract The magnetic encoder (ME) always employs sensor passing through periodic and equal distance grating and then generates periodic quadrature scaling signals for displacement measurement. The phase is relative to the movement. To improve encoder accuracy or resolution, electronic interpolation technique had been developed to subdivide the phase of quadrature scaling signals. According to the trends, this paper proposed a specific method with excellent noise immunity characteristic and a complete calibration process to improve the accuracy of the system. The designed circuit is taped-out using TSMC 0.18-μm CMOS process, where the active area is 1643 μm × 1676 μm. The chip has the specification of 3.3 V supply voltage, 20 MHz clock frequency, and 0.0859 mW power consumption. The accuracy of the measurement system is 1.065um.
