Abstract:Two polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) based pressure gauges were prepared using flexible copper-clad polyimide film and conductive polymer tap as the packaging layer, marked flexible copper-clad polyimide film(FCP) and conductive polymer tap(CPT), respectively. The calibration experiments of sensitive coefficient were performed based on the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). The influence of the several structural geometry factors and material properties on measuring performance of two pressure gauges were studied through mesoscopic finite element simulation. The results shown that the fitted sensitivity coefficient for FCP and CPT gauges were 33.1±0.3pC/N and 35.1±0.6pC/N in the stress range of 20-320MPa, respectively. CPT has higher measuring confidence than FCP when the pressure was below 50MPa, but CPT also show the amplitude attenuation and pulse width increase because of high packaging thickness and the viscosity of the polymer conducting layer. Dynamic compression of CPT shown significant strain rate sensitivity, while the dynamic stress-strain response of FCP displayed typical nonlinear piecewise features due to the mechanical failure of the conductive and glue layers. Numerical simulation indicated that the mismatch of thickness and material properties between the core and the sensitive element both influenced the stress pulse of the pressure gauge, and the measuring error caused by the raised core was largest. Besides, it was found that the stress state of sensitive element (SE) was more approximate to the one-dimensional strain state with the increase of loading amplitude and the decrease of the packaging thickness. The charge output of SE was synthetically determined by triaxial stress and piezoelectric coefficients. The nominal sensitivity calibrated by SHPB tests was closely related to the stress state of SE, mismatch of material properties between core and SE, geometric defects and the strain rate effect. Therefore, it was suggested that the package and calibration of pressure gauge should be according to the measuring condition and the stress pulse characteristics.
