We discuss the general theoretical characterization of a Gas-Path debris detection monitoring system based on electrostatic sensors and charge amplifiers. We provide the analytical expression of the time-varying charge induced by the moving debris on the sensor surface, discussing the effects of the amplifier bandwidth on the shape of the output voltage signal. Theoretical results have been validated with experiments
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
