2. Preface
Uncooled piezoelectric sensors are a highly efcient
design of sensor. This allows easy access to the
combustion chamber with minimal installation and in-
service effort. They provide highly precise measurements
and data quality, with a level of performance comparable to
water cooled sensors (depending upon the application and
installation). They are easily capable of performing high-
precision thermodynamic studies such as assessment of
the combustion curve and analysis of the gas exchange
process. The design of the sensor body allows reliable
measurements irrespective of engine operation mode and
boundary conditions.

2.2 Principle of operation
The sensor membrane converts the measured pressure
into a force which is applied to the piezoelectric measu-
ring element. In the piezoelectric crystal package this
force generates an electrostatic charge proportional to the
load. An electrode collects this charge and supplies it to
the sensor connector, then via the piezoelectric cable; the
chargeamplierconvertsthischargeintoanelectricvol-
tage for measurement and processing.
The piezoelectric principle is suitable for measurements
of fast, dynamic and quasi-static pressure changes and
thus plays a key role in engine pressure measurements.

3. Installation of the piezoelectric sensor
3.1 General information
The accuracy of a measurement and quality of the data
are highly dependent on careful installation of the piezo-
electric pressure sensor.

The sensor installation plays a critical part in contributing
to the overall accuracy and performance of the measu-
rement chain itself. So a good understanding of the ins-
tallation types and their strengths and weaknesses is es-
sential information for the measurement and development
engineer.
Sensors can be classied in several ways. In this do-
cument, relating to uncooled sensors, we shall look at
sealing and installation securing technologies as the main
differentiators. This means whether the sensor is front
sealed or shoulder sealed. In combination with threaded
or plug-in securing methods.
When planning the installation, it is possible with certain
types, to consider the amount of recession of the sensor
membrane itself relative to the inner cylinder head surface.
Thiscanhaveconsiderablebenetswithrespecttosensor
temperature management - but must be traded off with the
potential that the additional volume in front of the mem-
brane can act as a resonator at certain conditions - thus
adding undesirable high frequencies to the measured data

As a general rule 8mm, threaded (Type 6044/6045) and 1/4
inch plug-in sensor (Type 6124/6125) from Kistler can be
completelyushmountedifdesired.However,aslightre-
cess of up to 2 mm can help considerably with sensor du-
rability, without creating a resonance in a frequency range
which is problematic for engine measurement applications.
Plug-in sensors (Type 6124/6125) are particularly sensi-
tive to machining bore tolerances. This is due to the fact
that the smooth, larger bore is used to correctly position
the sensor concentrically, before the clamping device is
applied. Any mis-alignment will create potential of incor-
rect sealing, excessive localised heat build-up and prema-
ture failure of the sensor itself.
Fig. 4: Sensor Type 6124/6125 bore machining requi-
rements
Front sealed sensors will always require some structural
material at the front of the sensor in order to provide and
support the sealing surface itself. This fact inevitably me-
ans that a front sealed sensor cannot be mounted ush
with the cylinder head surface - there must always be vo-
lume in front of the membrane. The size of this volume
depends upon the material surrounding the sensor instal-
lation - as higher strength material can provide the requi-
red support with less material and thus a smaller volume
in front of the membrane.
