This progress report explores the equilibrium analysis of a liquid proof-mass accelerometer, leveraging classical ideal gas law principles alongside comparisons with a spring-mass system. The design features dimensions of 10mm by 10mm by 2mm and utilizes air as the damping medium and deionized water as the moving liquid. Future work entails proving feasibility by calculating maximum liquid displacement and estimating flow rates, compared to the CNT flow sensor project.
