Pitot tube as a calibration device for turbulence measurement

This note is to demonstrate that one can correct hot‐wire turbulence measurements simply by using a Pitot tube to obtain the mean velocity distribution in fully developed, turbulent pipe flow. The basic idea is simply a combination of two independent derivations given in the late sixties. A test cas...

Zusammenfassung:	This note is to demonstrate that one can correct hot‐wire turbulence measurements simply by using a Pitot tube to obtain the mean velocity distribution in fully developed, turbulent pipe flow. The basic idea is simply a combination of two independent derivations given in the late sixties. A test case is given to prove the idea.
