The Seven-Hole Pressure Probe.

Abstract

This paper documents recent and past developments with respect to the seven-hole pressure probe. Included are discussions on probe design, construction, calibration, and measurement capabilities. The effects on probe measurements in shear flows, as well as methods of correction, are also included. Finally, research applications in the measurement of unknown flowfields are presented. As shown, the seven-hole pressure probe is a valuable and highly accurate device for qualitatively or quantitatively documenting unknown flowfields. (Author).
