· These sensors involve drilling into the combustion chamber chamber somewhere. I encountered this issue some years ago and the problem was not pressure sensors, but temparture sensors. Most temperature sensors do not react fast enough. You either bought temp sensors or estimated it from the gas laws.
Combustion chamber pressure loss is necessary from design point of view (Pattern factor and effective cooling, etc.) and flame stabilization considerations. However, total pressure loss also have effect on engine thrust and thrust specific fuel consumption. 2.
FAST TAPS aims at designing, validating and put in operation 8 cooled fast-response wall pressure taps for combustion chamber measurements.

In the first step, the measurement devices will be designed according to the desired measurement ...
A solution for measuring the pressure inside the combustion chamber, variable during the motor cycle, consists in integration in the cylinder-head gasket, on the bore’s superior edge, of a pressure sensor. Another solution, applicable on diesel motors, has been developed by Siemens VDO and Federal Mogul and consists in integrating the pressure sensor into the glow spark plug body ( ...
Sensors C1-C4 and C3-C6 are located on opposite sides just after the last high pressure compressor stage and then just before the combustion chamber. For these two pairs of sensors, Fig. 4 shows that the phase difference between the pressure signals is close to pi for domain 1 (compatible with uneven azimuthal modes) and zero for domain 2

able pressure sensors have been capable of surviving the thermal environment of a combustion chamber without the use of sensing lines or helium-filled cavities. Pressure-measurement signals obtained by use of sensing lines or helium-filled cavities have altered power spectra that make the signals unsuitable as feedback signals for control purposes. The proposed sensor would include two ...
