Method of Appraisal of Errors and Possibilities of the Electrothermoanemometer,

Abstract

The use of electrothermal anemometers for measuring flow characteristics is discussed. Causes of errors in such measurements are analyzed. Experiments show that error in the thermoanemometric method of measuring velocity and its turbulent pulsations mainly depends on errors in the calibration characteristics of the anemometers. Suggestions for preparing the calibration characteristics are given and the effect of various parameters, such as the position of anemometer legs and support with respect to flow direction, on the calibration characteristics of anemometers is discussed.
