Examples of pitot tube, static tube, and pitot–static tube Static ports fitted to an Airbus A330 passenger airliner. The pitot–static system of instruments uses the principle of air pressure gradient. It works by measuring pressures or pressure differences and using these values to assess the speed and altitude.

The Annubar primary element is an averaging Pitot tube manufactured by Rosemount Inc. [1] used to measure the flow of fluid in a pipe. A Pitot tube measures the difference between the static pressure and the flowing pressure of the media in the pipe.
Aircraft have pitot tubes for measuring airspeed. In aviation, airspeed is the speed of an aircraft relative to the air it is flying through (which itself is usually moving relative to the ground due to wind). It is difficult to measure the exact airspeed of the aircraft (true airspeed), but other measures of airspeed, such as indicated ...
