总压传感器（TPS）是中段空间实验（MSX）卫星上的10个污染传感器之一。TPS测量自然和航天器诱导的压力环境。本文首先介绍了从MSX使命的早期操作阶段的TPS数据。飞行数据表明与MSX的外部污染模型预测吻合良好。TPS波动被证明是一致的精神III低温盖的通风特性。数据的特点，并确认滚退精神III盖后，其释放的性质。最后，在轨道周期的飞行数据符合双峰压力分布。
The total pressure sensor (TPS) is one of ten contamination sensors aboard the midcourse space experiment (MSX) satellite. The TPS measures both the natural and spacecraft induced pressure environments. This paper presents a first look at the TPS data from the early operations phase of the MSX mission. Flight data are show to be in good agreement with the external contamination model predictions for MSX. TPS fluctuations are shown to be consistent with the venting characteristics of the Spirit III cryogenic cover. Data are presented which characterize and confirm the tumbling nature of the receding Spirit III cover upon its release. Finally, flight data over an orbital period are shown to conform to a bimodal pressure profile.
