Method and a device for correcting a measurement of the pressure of a gas stream flowing in an aircraft engine

A method to correct a current measurement of pressure of a gas stream delivered during a mission by a sensor in the engine. The method includes: estimating a drift error affecting the sensor on the basis of a difference existing between: (1) a calibration measurement of the pressure of the gas strea...

Zusammenfassung:A method to correct a current measurement of pressure of a gas stream delivered during a mission by a sensor in the engine. The method includes: estimating a drift error affecting the sensor on the basis of a difference existing between: (1) a calibration measurement of the pressure of the gas stream as delivered by the sensor in the engine, and (2) an atmospheric pressure measurement delivered by a sensor of the aircraft presenting accuracy greater than that of the sensor in the engine; these measurements being performed while the sensor in the engine and the sensor of the aircraft are subjected to same surrounding atmospheric pressure; and subtracting the estimated drift error from the current measurement.
