Abstract

A customizable length averaging pitot tube (APT) probe for insertion into a confined conduit is disclosed. The APT probe includes a probe portion, configured to be inserted into the confined conduit, which includes longitudinally extending upstream, downstream and middle surfaces to form first and second fluid carrying plenums within the APT probe portion. A plurality of longitudinally arranged openings are disposed along the length of the upstream surface with each opening in fluid communication with the first fluid carrying plenum. A plurality of longitudinally arranged openings are disposed along the length of the downstream surface with each opening in fluid communication with the second fluid carrying plenum. A cap is affixed to an end of the APT probe portion to isolate the first and second fluid carrying plenums. An elongated body is coupled to the APT probe portion and provides fluid passageways fluidically coupled to the first and second plenums.
