Abstract
Disclosed is a capacitive pressure probe for high temperature applications, such as for use in a gas turbine engine. The capacitive probe or pressure sensor of the present invention includes, inter alia, a sensor housing that defines an interior sensing chamber having a pressure port and an interior reference chamber positioned adjacent to a sensing electrode. The reference chamber is separated from the sensing chamber by a deflectable diaphragm made from Haynes 230 alloy, wherein the deflection of the diaphragm in response to an applied pressure in the sensing chamber corresponds to a change in capacitance value detected by the sensing electrode.
