Abstract
A method and apparatus for measuring static pressure. A tube is positioned within a hole in a structure. The hole has a hole diameter that is larger than a tube diameter of the tube such that a gap is formed between the tube and the hole. A first portion of deflected fluid that is deflected from a flow of fluid passing over the hole enters the gap and a second portion of the deflected fluid enters the tube. The static pressure of the fluid is measured at a location of the hole with the tube positioned within the hole.
