Abstract:
The dynamic method of the determination of the piezoelectric hydrostatic coefficients, dh, was improved. We have constructed new equipment for more exact measurement by means of the direct dynamic method. The piston for the high-pressure mechanical excitation of pressure changes was used. The advantage of the proposed method is a low frequency (about 1 Hz) pressure excitation. The lever hydraulic press is able to create the hydrostatic pressure inside the pressure chamber up to 70 MPa. The temperature control is realised by the PID temperature controller with a resistivity heater and by the compressor cooler.
