The speciality of pitot basing on the characteristic experiment of the environmental controlling system of a certain type of aircraft during testing flight is studied deeply,and the basic principle of pitot use is summarized.

Meanwhile,the method of calibrating wind velocity with Pitot is given.

Series advanced measurement techniques, such as a bsorptive spectros copy technique,pitot pressure measurement and ion probes are applied to measure properties of free stream in JF10 hydrogen oxygen detonation driven shock tun nel, which can run at high enthalpy condition.

Study on quasi-S type Pitot tube and its measurement characteristics;

Experiments and numerical simulations were conducted on various Pitot tubes in order to study the effect of the geometrical parameters on their measurement characteristics.

Used in working situations, extra errors are inevitably added to the measurement results of a Pitot tube due to deviations from its standard usage conditions.
