Three & Five Hole Probe
These probes also operate on Bernoulli’s principle but are capable of measuring 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional flow velocity, respectively.
These probes also operate on Bernoulli’s principle but are specially designed to measure flow velocity in two dimensions (2D) and three dimensions (3D), respectively. Unlike conventional Pitot tubes that sense only the axial component of flow, these advanced probes accurately detect flow direction and magnitude across multiple axes. This makes them highly suitable for complex flow environments where turbulence, swirl, or non-uniform flow patterns are present.
They are widely used in aerodynamic studies, wind tunnel experiments, HVAC systems, duct flow diagnostics, environmental monitoring, and industrial process measurements. By providing directional flow data, these probes help engineers analyze flow behavior more precisely and optimize system performance.
