Types of Differential Pressure Flow Meters

Pitot Tube

A probe with an open tip (Pitot tube) is inserted into the flow field. The tip is the stationary (zero velocity) point of the flow. Its pressure, compared to the static pressure, is used to calculate the flow velocity. Pitot tubes can measure flow velocity at the point of measurement. See Pitot Tube Flowmeters and Pitot Static Tubes for more details.
