Description
Unlike conventional probe designs with five or seven pressure
ports on a conical tip, the Omniprobe is equipped with twelve
ports on a spherical tip, allowing it a much greater incidence
angle than our other probes. Though the probe shaft interferes
with the readings, preventing it from being perfectly omni-directional,
the Omniprobe is able to accurately measure flow in a 160° cone
emanating from the tip. In short, the only time when the Omniprobe
will not get accurate readings is if the flow is coming from
the base of the probe and moving along the shaft.
