Application of NI Real-Time Hypervisor in Bellows Swing Measurement and Control System

Bellows is cylindrical thin-walled shell which has a reliable compactable structure. It is often used as a tie between engines and fuel tank.This measurement and control system can simulate the real status of the bellows in the space. The bellows which contains liquid substances can also be sway in a high frequency. The system is made by NI Real-Time Hypervisor, LabVIEW under the windows operating system. It is a real-time system whose control period is only 1ms.The hardware is simple too, one computer with dual-core processor and one signal conditioner chassis.
