| Abstract: | Torque being a very important physical parameter, plays a very vital role in various applications like
aviation, automobile, power and agriculture industries. Torque is, generally, measured
by mechanical type torque meters/torque wrenches, having higher uncertainty.
These mechanical type torque meters/torque wrenches need to be calibrated using
strain gauged torque transducers. Hence, there is acute thrust over development
of precise and reliable strain gauge based torque transducers. In the present
work, a torque transducer of capacity 5 Nm has been studied. The torque
transducer has been metrologically characterized against the standard torque
machine (bmc = ±0.05% at k = 2) using
the standard calibration procedure based on standard BS 7882:2008. The
uncertainty of measurement of the torque transducer is ± 0.06% (at k = 2). |
