Abstract
An apparatus for measuring the velocity of a fluid includes an elongated housing having at least one side wall, a plurality of sensors arranged in spaced relation along the housing side wall, and a processor connected with the sensors and configured to process signals from the sensors to measure velocities of a fluid adjacent the apparatus when the apparatus is in contact with the fluid. Each of the sensors includes an electromagnet enclosed in the housing and a pair of electrodes arranged opposite each other on an outer surface of the housing. The electromagnets are energized by the processor to create an electromagnetic field in a fluid when the apparatus is in contact with the fluid, and the pair of electrodes is configured to produce an electrical signal in response to a velocity of the fluid when it flows through the electromagnetic field.
