Abstract
A fluid sensing device includes an outer shell, a three-axis force and moment balance, a strut, and a centerbody. The outer shell has an inlet at a first end of the outer shell, an aft vent at an opposing second end of the outer shell, and an interior space connecting the inlet and the aft vent. The three-axis force and moment balance is positioned in the interior space of the outer shell. The strut is connected to the outer shell and the three-axis force and moment balance such that the strut supports the three-axis force and moment balance in the interior space. At least a portion of the centerbody is positioned in the interior space of the outer shell. The centerbody is connected to the three-axis force and moment balance such that the three-axis force and moment balance is configured to measure force, moment, and/or movement of the centerbody.
