Study and development of total pressure probe and pitot tube in 3m×2m icing wind tunnel

The total pressure probe and the pitot tube with the anti-icing/deicing functions are important measurement equipment in icing wind tunnels for which the aerodynamic design is critical. Taking a cue from some airspeed head's manufacture, the total pressure probe and the pitot tube are designed, by using new techniques and deploying the proper heated cable distribution. They show reasonable results in the ground-based static testing, calibration and experiment in the icing wind tunnel with high reliability and insulating property according to China national military standard.
