These probes are by far our most commonly sold product and are being used by universities and industrial testing facilities around the world. While the probes are most commonly used in wind-tunnels water tunnels and towing tanks, they are occasionally found mounted behind a full-scale power-generating wind-turbine or inserted into the prototype of automobile engine’s intake manifold, or monitoring industrial processes like mining flotation machines.
Description
Straight Probes are used primarily for measuring flow as it is approaching the test area. Wind tunnel testing facilities often use Straight Probes because their mounting systems are perpendicular to the airflow and the Straight Probe places the probe tip directly in the air flow. Use whenever possible.
