Air data probes

An air data probe (100; 200) includes a probe head (102; 202) defining a longitudinal axis (A) with a forward tip (104; 202), and a turbulence inducing surface (106; 206) defined in the probe head aft of the forward tip. The turbulence inducing surface is configured and adapted to trip a fluid bound...

Zusammenfassung:	An air data probe (100; 200) includes a probe head (102; 202) defining a longitudinal axis (A) with a forward tip (104; 202), and a turbulence inducing surface (106; 206) defined in the probe head aft of the forward tip. The turbulence inducing surface is configured and adapted to trip a fluid boundary layer passing over the probe head to transition from laminar to turbulent to control or reduce boundary layer separation resulting in consistent readings at high altitudes.
