Piezotronics has brought out a pressure sensor for combustion testing and thermoacoustic pressure measurements which eliminates the need for water cooling and has  a temperature rating of 1400 °F (760 °C). The device measures combustion dynamics as well as gas turbine measurements, thermoacoustic measurements, rocket motor combustion instability or any high temperature, dynamic gas pressure ...
