Hemispherical and spherical flow parameter detectors
Abstract
The design of hemispherical and spherical detectors of flow parameters is examined, and algorithms for processing measurement results are described. The characteristics of spherical and hemispherical detectors of large angles of attack are reported on the basis of tests at Mach 0.5-0.7, angles of attack of 0-40 deg, and slip angles of 0-12 deg.
