Probe systems for measuring static pressure and turbulence intensity in fluid streams

摘要

A method and apparatus for measuring time-averaged static or ambient pressure and turbulence intensity in a turbulent stream involve placing a plurality of probes in the stream. Each probe responds in a different manner to characteristics of the fluid stream, preferably as a result of having varying cross sections. The responses from the probes are used to eliminate unwanted components in the measured quantities for accurate determination of selected characteristics.
