Abstract
A fluid sensing device includes an outer body, an inner body coupled to the outer body by one or more inner body support struts and extending at least partially out from the outer body, and an aft body disposed at least partially within the outer body at a location aft of the inner body, the aft body being coupled to the outer body by one or more aft body support struts. The inner body includes a hollow interior for housing one or more inner body sensors, and the aft body houses one or more aft body sensors. The fluid sensing device can measure one or more parameters of fluid flow at high angularity, such as total temperature and total pressure, locally and simultaneously, allowing additional fluid parameters, such as local entropy, to be calculated.
