1.2.1.3.1 Snubber Equation Derivation
Using the laboratory data obtained in Section 1.2.1.1, characteristic equations for various degrees of snubbing (i.e., 20°, 25°, and 10°), were obtained.
The P-Q characteristic, in general, for the orifice can be shown to be the following:
…
The above equation closely resembles the equation of a straight line:
…
A simple least-squares curvefit can now be employed to determine n and log₁₀ K. Actual calculations for these values were performed using HP-55 programmable calculator and the program given below … page 22
1.2.1.3.2 Hydlraulic Gauge Capacitance Equation
It can be shown that the pressure-volume relationship for the bourdon tube pressure gauge is:
…
The hydraulic capacitance is defined as the rate of change of volume with respect to pressure. That is,
…
Applying the derivative to the original equation gives
…
Rearrangement of the above equation results in:
…
which resembles the equation of a straight line
…
The calculations necessary to obtain the least-square's fit were again performed on a programable HP-55 calculator using the program below … page 22
