''Measurement''). The antenna composed of an ellipsoidal nose (bow) maintained in parallel and in front of the flow to control. The total pressure (+) is picked up by the bow and is connected to the + sign of the manometer. The static pressure (-) picked up by the small holes located around the antenna is connected to the – sign of the manometer. The connecting cable of the K thermocouple is connected to the input K of the manometer (for the Pitot tube type L with K TC). The device then indicates the dynamic pressure, sometimes called speed pressure. The dynamic pressure corresponds to the difference between total pressure and static pressure : Dp = Tp-Sp APPLICATION Total pressure (Tp) Static pressure (Sp) Dynamic pressure = Tp - Sp Example above : The Kimo manometer (portable or transmitter) directly indicates the speed in m/s.

  • Pitot-Static System Blockage Effects on Airspeed Indicator
    The Dramatic Effects of Pitot-Static System Blockages and Failures by Luiz Roberto Monteiro de Oliveira . Table of Contents I ‐ Introduction…………………………………………………………………………………………………………….1 II ‐ Pitot‐Static Instruments…………………………………………………………………………………………..3 III ‐ Blockage Scenarios – Description……………………………..…………………………………….…..…11 IV ‐ Examples of the Blockage Scenarios…………………..……………………………………………….…15 V ‐ Disclaimer………………………………………………………………………………………………………………50 VI ‐ References…………………………………………………………………………………………….…..……..……51 Please also review and understand the disclaimer found at the end of the article before applying the information contained herein. I - Introduction This article takes a comprehensive look into Pitot-static system blockages and failures. These typically affect the airspeed indicator (ASI), vertical speed indicator (VSI) and altimeter. They can also affect the autopilot auto-throttle and other equipment that relies on airspeed and altitude information. There have been several commercial flights, more recently Air France's flight 447, whose crash could have been due, in part, to Pitot-static system issues and pilot reaction. It is plausible that the pilot at the controls could have become confused with the erroneous instrument readings of the airspeed and have unknowingly flown the aircraft out of control resulting in the crash. The goal of this article is to help remove or reduce, through knowledge, the likelihood of at least this one link in the chain of problems that can lead to accidents.

This paper presents the design and manufacture of a wireless Pitot tube for use in flight tests, it is also presented the mechanical design, electronic, calibration and validation trial of such equipment. The Pitot tube in question was designed to operate together with the data acquisition system developed at Centro de Estudos Aeronáuticos at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (CEA-FDAS – “Flight Data Aquisition System”). CEA-FDAS is a low cost data acquisition system for use in flight tests, which can be coupled to several sensors / devices. One of these devices, as in conventional flight test system consists of a Pitot tube with four sensors, which in most cases must be installed on the wingtip of the aircraft, with the acquisition of static and dynamic pressure, and even a set of two flags to determine the angles of attack and sideslip. The fact that the Pitot tube in question has no wires to connect with the data acquisition system is its best advantage when compared to its peers, what makes the installation process very simple and fast in addition it is compatible with any type of aircraft by simply providing the attachment means to this structure.

  • 1. Introduction to Pitot Tube Flow Measurement
    1. Introduction to Pitot Tube Flow Measurement Pressure sensors are classified as Differential Pressure sensors for flow measurement. The measuring principle of the pitot tube utilizes the differences between the pressure ridge on the upstream side of a bluff body and the static pressure on its down stream side. ITABAR-pitot tube sensors, see sample Fig 1.1, are mainly used to measure the volumetric flow of liquids, gases and steam in closed pipes ranging from ½“ to 480“ (DN 20 to DN 12000). Examples of their applications are precise volumetric flow measurement in batch processes, continuous measurement of liquid ingredients in the process industry, fuel, air, steam and gases as primary energy source as well as in control functions requiring a high degree of stability and repeatability. Examplary in comparsion to almost all other flow measuring instruments is the ITABAR-sensor’s ease of installation. The installation consists of these steps: drilling of the pipe, weld-o- let is welded on to the pipe, ITABAR is inserted. Models Flo- Tap FT , see Fig 1.2, allows installation and removal without Fig 1.1 shutting the process down. ITABAR-pitot tube sensors were developed with the goal of high reliability even under difficult conditions. ITABAR-pitot tube sensors are optimized in several ways with respect to fluid stream conditions. Advantages of the engineered sensor profile are their low permanent pressure loss as well as the constistent measurement accuracy over a wide range of Reynolds numbers. For over two decades ITABAR-pitot tube sensors have been applied in the industrial world. Their examplary reliability and excellent long-term use record resulted in broad acceptance by customers.

Pressure Nondimensionalization References: Anderson 3.2-3.5, Denker 3.4 ( http://www.av8n.com/how/ ) Bernoulli Equation Definition For every point s along a streamline in frictionless flow with constant density ρ, the local speed V (s)= |V~ | and local pressure p(s) are related by the Bernoulli Equation 1 p + ρV 2 = p (1) 2 o This po is a constant for all points along the streamline, even though p and V may vary. This is illustrated in the plot of p(s) and po(s) along a streamline near a wing, for instance. 1ρ 2 2 V po p s s Standard terminology is as follows. p = static pressure 1 ρV 2 = dynamic pressure 2 po = stagnation pressure, or total pressure Also, a commonly-used shorthand for the dynamic pressure is 1 2 q ≡ ρV 2 so we can also write the Bernoulli equation in the following compact form. p + q = po 1 Uniform Upstream Flow Case Many practical flow situations have uniform flow somewhere upstream, with V~ (x, y, z)= V~∞ and p(x, y, z) = p∞ at every upstream point. This uniform flow can be either at rest with V~∞ ≃ 0 (as in a reservoir), or be moving with uniform velocity V~∞ =6 0 (as in a upstream wind tunnel section), as shown in the figure.

  • Flight Environmental Systems
    CIRRUS AIRPLANE MAINTENANCE MANUAL MODEL SR22 FLIGHT ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS 1. DESCRIPTION This section covers that portion of the system which senses environmental conditions and uses the data to influence navigation of the airplane. This includes pitot-static, Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI), altimeter, air- speed indicator, and Outside Air Temperature (OAT) gage/clock. (See Figure 34-001) The pitot system utilizes an “L” shaped mast with integral pitot tube and heater located on the LH wing just inboard of the wing tip to sense impact or ram air pressure. The pitot mast utilizes an electrical heating ele- ment to prevent ice from blocking ram air. Pitot heat is controlled by a switch located in the center of the bolster switch panel. An amber PITOT HEAT light on the annunciation panel will illuminate if the PITOT HEAT switch is set to ON position and the pitot heater is not using power. The pitot heat system operates on 28 VDC supplied through the 7.5-amp PITOT HEAT/COOLING FAN cir- cuit breaker on the Non-Essential Bus. The PITOT HEAT warning light operates on 28 VDC supplied through the 2-amp ANNUN circuit breaker on the Essential Bus. The normal static system utilizes two ports, a static source water trap, an alternate static source selector valve, and the necessary plumbing to provide static air pressure sensing for the airspeed indicator, vertical speed indicator, altimeter, altitude encoder, and altitude transducer. Serials 0435 thru 0820 w/ PFD, 0821 & subs: The primary flight display (PFD) receives static air pressure data through the static system. The normal static ports are located on the LH and RH sides of the fuselage behind the aft cabin bulkhead.
