Abstract
A fluid flow speed measuring apparatus comprising a first pipe having an opening exposed into a fluid to be measured, a direction of the opening having an angle larger than a critical negative pressure angle, a second pipe having an opening exposed into the fluid to be measured, a direction of the opening of the second pipe having an angle larger than the critical negative pressure angle and at least one of conditions such as a diameter, a direction, and the number of the openings for determining a magnitude of the negative pressure being different from that of the opening of the first pipe, negative pressure difference detector for detecting a difference between negative pressures acting on the openings of the first and second pipes, and device for calculating a flow speed of the fluid to be measured on the basis of an output from the negative pressure difference detector.
