Description

The simplest and therefore most common type of total pressure sensor is the Pitot tube. Total pressure sensors are used to accurately measure differential pressure and to determine flow velocities of fluids. They are used for a wide range of purposes, for example to determine the airspeed in aviation, to measure wind speeds in meteorology or to determine the flow velocity in pipes.
Used in conjunction with it, the accessory allows the electronic measurement of static and dynamic pressure. The Pitot tube can be adjusted vertically and is attached to intake pipe. The total pressures at various positions in the intake pipe are recorded. The position of the Pitot tube is measured electronically. An additional measuring point measures the static pressure. Both measuring points are connected to it. The measured values are analysed using the software.

Learning Objectives/Experiments

Measurement of the total pressure and the static pressure in intake pipe
Recording pressure distribution over the cross section
Determining velocity distribution over the cross section
In conjunction
Measurement of the total pressure in the wake of a cylinder
Determine drag coefficient from the pressure distribution in the wake of a cylinder
Demonstrate wake depression

Specification
Electronic total pressure sensor for measurement of static and dynamic pressure
accessory for it
