A Pitot-static tube is an instrument used to measure the point velocity of a fluid by utilizing the Bernoulli principle. It is primarily employed for flow measurements, with the capability to evaluate both flow velocity and volumetric flow rate.

A Pitot-static tube is a precision instrument used to measure the point velocity of a fluid by applying the Bernoulli principle. It functions by sensing both the static and dynamic pressure of the flowing medium and converting the pressure difference into velocity. Widely used in air, gas, and liquid flow applications, the Pitot-static tube provides reliable and accurate measurements even in challenging industrial environments. It is primarily employed for flow studies, ventilation systems, aerodynamic testing, and pipeline monitoring, with the capability to calculate flow velocity as well as volumetric flow rate.
