English term

tip timing probe

English to French Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space rotor
There will be some challenges to position and support the *tip timing probes* in the spin pit that may have to be addressed locally. This is likely to be the critical path although the strain gauge and *tip timing probe* installation are serial operations and are likely to become critical once the rotor has become available.

Blade Tip Timing

"In the blade tip timing example, the green line is the actual arrival time for mid-blade edge (blue dot) of a particular blade as measured by an AMS probe. The red dashed line is the center-time for a blade passing. The center time is calculated using the arrival times of all the blades and averaging them over 3 revolutions. The time difference (black arrow) represents the difference between when the blade should pass and when it actually does. Following the blade is a 5E (five vibration/one rotation) Sine wave. The difference value is converted into blade deflections and used in the overall blade analysis."

Since 2002, AMS has engaged in contracts with most of the major turbine engine manufacturers (Aero and Power Generation) in the U.S. and Europe as well as the U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force."
