Abstract:This study determined the deviations between Pitot traverses performed by traditional hand-held methods and a traverse device designed to hold the Pitot tube perfectly in position, effectively eliminating errors due to yaw, pitch, and insertion point deviations. The hand-held measurements were performed twice by nine different test subjects, while each position was measured with the traverse device five times. Two ten-point traverse measurements were taken at various distances downstream and upstream from a 90… Show more
