  2. Pitot tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitot_tube

    The pitot tube can be inserted through a small hole in the duct with the pitot connected to a U-tube water gauge or some other differential pressure gauge for determining the flow velocity inside the ducted wind tunnel. One use of this technique is to determine the volume of air that is being delivered to a conditioned space.

  3. Air data module - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_data_module

    The air data module is a gas pressure sensor which converts mechanical forces created by gas pressure into digital signals that can be carried to the air data reference unit. ADMs generally have a maintenance bus and communication bus, and a connector on the housing for a pressurized gas line that is connected to the pitot tube or static ports.

  4. Pitot–static system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitot–static_system

    The pitot pressure is obtained from the pitot tube.The pitot pressure is a measure of ram air pressure (the air pressure created by vehicle motion or the air ramming into the tube), which, under ideal conditions, is equal to stagnation pressure, also called total pressure.

  5. Stagnation pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagnation_Pressure

    The two points of interest are 1) in the freestream flow at relative speed where the pressure is called the "static" pressure, (for example well away from an airplane moving at speed ); and 2) at a "stagnation" point where the fluid is at rest with respect to the measuring apparatus (for example at the end of a pitot tube in an airplane).

  6. Derailment (thought disorder) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derailment_(thought_disorder)

    In psychiatry, derailment (aka loosening of association, asyndesis, asyndetic thinking, knight's move thinking, entgleisen, disorganised thinking [1]) categorises any speech comprising sequences of unrelated or barely related ideas; the topic often changes from one sentence to another.

  7. Annubar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annubar

    A Pitot tube measures the difference between the static pressure and the flowing pressure of the media in the pipe. The volumetric flow is calculated from that difference using Bernoulli's principle , taking into account the pipe's inside diameter. [ 2 ]

  8. The Climax You’ve Been Looking For - The Huffington Post

    projects.huffingtonpost.com/projects/cliteracy/...

    From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.

  9. Position error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_error

    The pitot tube supplies pressure to the airspeed indicator. Pitot pressure is equal to stagnation pressure providing the pitot tube is aligned with the local airflow, it is located outside the boundary layer, and outside the wash from the propeller.
