Provided is a method of designing a low-pressure chamber that provides a preset air pressure corresponding to a predetermined altitude. The method may include the steps of: calculating a predetermined error range of the preset air pressure, and calculating an amount and types of materials of a getter to be inserted into the low-pressure chamber based on the error range and a total volume of the low-pressure chamber.

Method of designing a low-pressure chamber

Provided is a method for maintaining a preset air pressure of a low-pressure chamber. The method may comprise the steps of: measuring the inside air pressure of a low-pressure chamber; if the difference between the inside air pressure and a preset air pressure is the same or higher than a threshold value, adjusting the inside temperature of the low-pressure chamber by using a thermal conduction part disposed inside the low-pressure chamber; and by using a getter, making the difference to be below the threshold value by adsorbing or releasing molecules inside the low-pressure chamber according to the adjustment of the temperature.
