Abstract

WITH an annual turnover of some $100 million, including sales to the processing and general manufacturing markets, the international Transducer Division of Schlumberger Industries embraces five long‐established suppliers to the aircraft manufacturing and aerospace industries. The Division addresses itself to both the civil and military aerospace sectors from three strategic manufacturing locations—in the USA, UK and France. In the USA, there are two design, development and manufacturing operations at respectively Oxnard, California, and Newark in New Jersey. A similar total capability exists in the UK at Farnborough, Hampshire, and at Enfield in Middlesex where incidentally the Division also has its headquarters. The equally endowed French connection is situated at Velizy, on the outskirts of Paris.

Abstract

MODERN aircraft engines incorporate numerous sensors for measuring their operating parameters, both in the immediate sense for electronic control of performance and, in the longer term, to monitor engine health. The same or separate sensors may serve these two functions. Many of the control sensors additionally supply signals to cockpit indicators which inform the pilot of the engine condition when adjusting the controls to call for more or less engine power. The sensors are mounted on or inside the engine and consequently experience very severe environmental conditions. The apparent simplicity of some of these sensors belies the considerable expertise that is required to design, manufacture and test them to meet such demanding operating conditions in accordance with the high specification standards set by the aero engine and aviation industries.
