What Does an Accelerometer do in an Airplane?

Quartz accelerometer is widely used in flight control system. It mainly relies on its high precision and high stability to realize the functional design of navigation, control and safety system.

1. Navigation system

As an important part of navigation system, quartz accelerometer is mainly used to measure the acceleration, speed and altitude of aircraft. Based on its high precision and strong stability, the quartz accelerometer can provide high-precision positioning and navigation information for aircraft and improve flight safety performance. At the same time, quartz accelerometers can be used in combination with other sensors such as gyroscopes to achieve more accurate aircraft positioning and navigation. For example, ER-QA-03C is specially designed for the aviation field, its size is 18.2X23mm, bias repeatability is 15-80μg,scale factor repeatability is 15-80 PPM and class II non-linearity repeatability is 20 to 50μg/g2.

2. Control system

The quartz accelerometer is used in the control system to monitor the attitude, angular velocity and acceleration of the aircraft. Based on its high precision and fast reaction speed, the quartz accelerometer can detect the status and behavior of the aircraft in real time, achieve fast response and control, and improve flight safety and stability.

3. Security system

Quartz accelerometers are also widely used in safety systems, mainly for detecting and preventing turbulence and abnormal behavior of aircraft. Based on its high precision and fast reaction speed, the quartz accelerometer can detect the acceleration change and turbulence of the aircraft in real time, and take corresponding measures in advance to avoid the occurrence of accidents.

Quartz accelerometer has been widely used in the field of flight control abroad. Its high precision and strong stability provide important support and guarantee for the design and development of flight system. It is believed that with the continuous development of technology, the application range and function of quartz accelerometer will be further improved and improved, and make greater contributions to flight safety and scientific development.
