Effects of Compressibility and Large Angles of Yaw on Pressure Indicated by a Total-Pressure Tube (open access)

Effects of Compressibility and Large Angles of Yaw on Pressure Indicated by a Total-Pressure Tube

Report discusses the effects of compressibility and angle of yaw on the pressure measured by a round-nose and a flat-nose total-pressure tube. The error incurred in the pressure measurements and factors affecting the total-pressure area are described.
