This paper presents a method to derive the gyro response time of thermal expansion flow in Z-axis micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). First, the structure of the thermal expansion gyro is given and its working principle is explained in detail. Secondly, according to the sensitive mechanism of the thermal expansion gyro and its heat transfer mode, the theoretical model of the response time of the thermal expansion gyro is derived, and the calculation formula of the response time of the thermal expansion gyro is given. Finally, in order to verify the response time calculation formula derived in this paper, the finite element method is used. Based on the three-dimensional physical model of the thermal expansion gyro, the theoretical response time of the gyro is calculated and verified. The results of calculation and finite element verification show that: (1) the theoretical model and formula of response time of thermal expansion gyro are in agreement with the verification data; (2) With the increase of the thermal conductivity of the gas, the area of the thermal wire, and the decrease of the specific heat capacity and density of the gas, the response time gradually decreases. (3) The gyro response time calculated for Z-axis thermal expansion flow is 669.88 ms. The formula for calculating the response time of thermal expansion gyro presented in this paper lays a theoretical foundation for optimizing the response time of thermal expansion gyro.

We propose thermal expansion flow gyroscopes with self-balancing resistance and study their impact resistance. In this paper, a thermal expansion flow gyro with self-balancing resistors is used as the research basis, aiming to improve the environmental adaptability of the gyro through technological innovation. The thermal expansion flow gyro contains an upper chamber, a lower chamber and a base layer, which contains four thermistors, two heating resistors and two balancing resistors. In order to improve the detection accuracy of the Wheatstone bridge, the balancing resistors and thermistors are fabricated using the same MEMS process, which ensures that the balancing resistors are highly consistent with the thermistors in terms of material, structure, and process, and achieves a high degree of matching and stability. Based on the above analysis, we carried out a finite element analysis of the impact resistance of the self-contained balancing resistor thermal expansion flow gyro. The experimental results show that the impact resistance of this thermal expansion flow gyro can reach 14,752 g when the load is applied in 0~10ms, which fully proves its high stability in harsh environments. The results of this study will provide a reference for subsequent gyro performance studies.
The sensitivity mechanism of a thermal oscillator-type biaxial MEMS angular velocity gyro was revealed. The temperature field inside the sensitive structure was calculated based on the biaxial sensitivity principle, the vibration mode of the thermal oscillator and the gyroscopic effect. The results show that: (1) A stable temperature field is formed inside the sensitive structure after 1.8s of power-on. (2) When there is angular velocity loading, the thermal oscillator moves with the input angular velocity, causing the temperature field to shift, and the temperature difference $\Delta T_{\mathrm{Y}}(\Delta T\mathrm{x})$ between the two hotlines set symmetrically in the two orthogonal $\mathrm{Y}(\mathrm{X})$ directions shows a linear growth with the increase of the input angular velocity $a_{x}(a_{y})$ , and the average temperature sensitivity of X and Y axes is 121 mK/°/s. (4) According to the input-output $\omega_{x}-VY\text{out}$ and $\omega_{y}-VX\text{out}$ characteristic curves, the mathematical model is obtained, and the sensitive mechanism is revealed. The average sensitivity of X and Y axes is 0.091mV/°/s, the average nonlinearity is 1.86%, and the average cross-coupling is 2.3%.
