Probes

Five-hole probe

A five-hole probe can be used with the traverse rig to make flow velocity and angularity measurements around a model or elsewhere in the test section. The probe pressures can be reduced to give local velocity, cross-flow, and up-flow angles. The 7/8” probe is calibrated and contains a static ring. 

Pitot probes

Several total, static, and pitot-static probes are available.

Wake rake probe

The KWT survey rake can be used for studying the wakes of wings, tails, and/or nacelles. Several rakes are available with varying spans.
