Homework Statement
How does the altitude of an airplane affect the measurement of the velocity, when using a Pitot tube to measure the speed? The Pitot tube is horizontal, with one end open and another closed. The stagnation pressure is measured at the end of the Pitot tube, and the static...
Homework Statement
A horizontal Pitot tube (with one end open for airflow and another closed) is accidentally installed into an airplane askew, so that the tube is not horizontal. Instead the closed tube end is higher (in the y-direction of a xy-plane) than the inlet end. How does this affect...
