The availability of different space charge measurement methods brings the necessity of calibration and characterization of measurement equipment to reach standardized measurements. In this paper, a method is presented to apply known charges at built samples which can be used for acoustic and thermal methods to compare measured values with calibration purposes. Experimental tests for validation purposes were performed in flat samples by comparison of results between a single layer and multilayer samples. Moreover, this method can be used to measure the resolution and accuracy of space charge measurement systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s18082508","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,1]],"date-time":"2018-08-01T11:22:34Z","timestamp":1533122554000},"page":"2508","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["A Calibration Method for Acoustic Space Charge Measurements Using Multilayer Samples"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9951-9547","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Guillermo","family":"Mier-Escurra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"DC Systems, Energy Conversion &amp; Storage, Department Electrical Sustainable Energy, Delft University of Technology, Mekelweg 4, 2628CD Delft, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Armando","family":"Rodrigo-Mor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DC Systems, Energy Conversion &amp; Storage, Department Electrical Sustainable Energy, Delft University of Technology, Mekelweg 4, 2628CD Delft, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter","family":"Vaessen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DNV-GL Energy, Utrechtseweg 310, 6812AR Arnhem, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"496","DOI":"10.1109\/94.625642","article-title":"The role of trapped space charges in the electrical aging of insulating materials","volume":"4","author":"Dissado","year":"1997","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
