SYSTEM AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR VARIABLE ALIGNMENT AERODYNAMIC PROBES

A variable alignment aerodynamic probe (200; 300; 400) may comprise a probe body (218; 318; 402) having a leading edge (230) and extending radially into a vane case (202), a sensor element proximate the leading edge, and a bearing (224) coupled to the probe body (218; 318; 402) and the vane case (20...

Zusammenfassung:A variable alignment aerodynamic probe (200; 300; 400) may comprise a probe body (218; 318; 402) having a leading edge (230) and extending radially into a vane case (202), a sensor element proximate the leading edge, and a bearing (224) coupled to the probe body (218; 318; 402) and the vane case (202). The probe body (218; 318; 402) may be configured to rotate in response to a turned flow within the vane case (202). The rotation of the probe body (218; 318; 402) may be configured to maintain an angle of attack of the leading edge (230) with respect to the turned flow between 0° and 15°.
