Abstract: | Since two membranes and a hydraulic cavity are introduced, the pressure cell with secondary membrane has a transitive loss. The paper analyses transitive loss theoretically and gives a unified formula in the following cases: (1) Under uncompressible liquid; (2) Under compressible liquid; (3) With air bubbles in force transfer cavities. A few calculations for circular membranes are made. The relation between allowable air bubble ratio and allowable transitive loss is also given in this paper. Both theoretical and experimental results prove that the high air bubble ratio is one of the bad linearity at low pressure. |
