What is a pitot tube used for?

A pitot tube is used to measure local velocity in a flowing fluid. The pitot tube hole must face the flowing fluid. The local velocity, u , is given by : u = SQRT [ ( delta P ) ( 2 ) ( g sub C ) / ( rho ) ]


Who is Emil Daiber?

he invented the heater from the pitot tube.


What is the name of the device detect the speed of an aeroplane?

It is called Pitot Tube. It measures fluid flow velocity. The results are displayed on the Airspeed Indicator.The pitot tubes detect the speed of the plane.


What instruments are affected if the pitot tube freezes over?

airspeed indicator


What does it mean when the airspeed indicator reads zero while in flight?

It means that for some reason ram-air is not being allowed into the pitot tube, or the static air system has become clogged in some other way. Most commonly this is caused by forgetting to remove the pitot cover, failing to turn on the pitot heater when necessary, or by a bird or bug strike on the pitot tube. If it can be visually verified that the pitot cover has been removed, the pilot should engage the pitot heat. If there is a backup gauge serviced by a separate system, then that should be used.

One way to measure airspeed is to use a device called a pitot tube.


How pitot probe heaters are controlled?

The pitot (peetoe) tube is a device that has a small hole in the front that allows ram air pressure to go to the airspeed indicator. Under conditions with a lot of moisture in the air, especially in fog or in clouds or in precipitation, moisture can collect in the opening and freeze, thus blocking the pitot tube and cutting off your airspeed indication (or making it wrong, which is worse). The pitot heater prevents freezing. Pilots simply control this by flipping a switch in the cockpit of the aircraft, usually located near the Anti-icing switches for the aircraft.
