Pitot Static Traverse Plate

Product Description

Description of DIDAC Pitot Static Traverse Plate:

The Pitot Static Traverse Plate includes a sliding plate, and pitot tube with multiple locations designed to be traversed across the duct of the base unit. The plate fits in a location below the main accessory aperture and allows the velocity profile behind all of the optional heat exchangers to be investigated. Also supplied is an upstream pitot tube that can be traversed across the duct to investigate the upstream velocity profile.

Specification of Pitot Static Traverse Plate:

• The accessory includes a sliding plate, and pitot tube with multiple locations designed to be traversed across the duct of the base unit. The plate fits in a location below the main accessory aperture and allows the velocity profile behind all of the optional heat exchangers to be investigated.
• Also supplied is an upstream pitot tube that can be traversed across the duct to investigate the upstream velocity profile. Pre-fitted static pressure tappings allow local velocities to be determined.
• Total and static differential pressures are recorded by manometers secured to the base unit duct.

Experimental Capabilities of Pitot Static Traverse Plate:

• Pitot traverse to determine the velocity profile upstream of a heat exchanger in cross flow.
• Pitot traverse to determine the velocity profile at various distances down stream of a heat exchanger.
