W82 structural telemetry system
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6053958
The W82 structural telemetry system was designed to monitor structural responses and define in-barrel environments during 155 mm gun tests of the W82 artillery fired projectile. Electronically, the TLM is of the FM/FM type providing 13 continuous data channels, primarily strain and acceleration, with frequency responses from 1 kHz to 8 kHz. With the exception of the battery and transmitter, the system is reusable with a modular design permitting relatively simple replacement of channels. At the time of writing, the system had been used on more than 30 W82 tests, surviving, operating, and monitoring axial accelerations exceeding 18,000 g's, radial accelerations to 20,000 g's and torsional impulses (tangential) to 3000 g's.
