A flow control device is including a tubular body including a tubular wall with an inner surface, an outer surface, and one or more openings extending from the outer surface to the inner surface through the tubular wall; a faired body encircling the tubular body, the faired body including a radially inner surface and a radially outer surface; and a flow shield encircling the faired body, the flow shield including a radially inward surface and a radially outward surface, the radially inward surface being in a facing spaced relationship with the radially outer surface of the faired body defining a passageway therebetween, wherein the passageway is fluidly connected to the one or more openings.

Omni-directional particulate extraction inlet

A particle concentration measurement system includes a first window and a second window separated by a sensing volume. The system also includes one or more supports to provide structural support for the first window at a first end and for the second window at a second end, opposite the first end, of each of the one or more supports. The sensing volume is defined by the one or more supports and the first window and the second window is open to an environment of the particle concentration measurement system adjacent to the one or more supports such that particle-laden gas from the environment that includes particles mixed with other materials enters the sensing volume. A first compressed gas orifice directs compressed gas onto the first window to clean the first window and a second compressed gas orifice directs the compressed gas onto the second window to clean the second window.
