In studies, the central unit has been the single-cylinder AVL 5402 engine. The pressure measurement was performed with a sensor designed for thermodynamic analysis, and the results were related to the crank angle, where two rotations corresponding to the four-stroke working cycle were denoted as angles between \u2212360\u00b0 and +360\u00b0. The novelty of this paper is the proposition of how to perform a type A uncertainty estimation of the in-cylinder pressure measurement and to assess its repeatability. It was demonstrated that repeatability of the measurement during the ignition process was difficult to estimate because of the phenomena that cannot ensure the repeatability conditions. To solve the problem, two methods were proposed. In one method, the pressure was measured in the subsequent cycles immediately after the ignition was turned off, and in another method, the engine was driven by a starter. The latter method provided maximal pressure values much lower than during usual tests. The obtained repeatability of measured pressure was %EV = 0.4%, which proved high capability of the evaluated measurement system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20123478","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,19]],"date-time":"2020-06-19T12:19:55Z","timestamp":1592569195000},"page":"3478","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Repeatability of High-Pressure Measurement in a Diesel Engine Test Bed"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Tomasz","family":"Skrzek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Kazimierz Pulaski University of Technology and Humanities in Radom, ul.
