1. Method using static pressure pipe
2. Method using a static pressure hole, which is asmooth hole made along duct inner wall so that noprotrusion into the duct is made3. Method using pipe (simplified Pitot tube) at an
orthogonal angle to the duct inner wall. However, touse this method, the flow speed must be 1 m/s orbelow. If the flow speed is higher than that, the error
will be greater because of the influence of the dynamic
pressure.

Measurement method of dynamic pressure
To know a flow speed, only measuring the dynamic
pressure of the flow obtains it. However, the dynamic
pressure cannot be directly measured. Therefore, use
the formula below.
Total pressure − Static pressure = Dynamic pressure
The dynamic pressure can be obtained from thedifferential pressure between the pressure at the totalpressure pipe and that at the static pressure pipe.
1. Method of installing static pressure pipe and total pressure
pipe at a distance D between them. (Refer to page 116)
2. Method of installing overall/static pressure pipe

Measurement method of static pressure and dynamic pressure
The measurement method for flow speed using the Pitot
tube is relatively simple and highly reliable, but as the airflow
speed decreases, the detection pressures (total pressure,static pressure) and the differential pressure (dynamicpressure) between them also decrease, and accurate
measurement is disabled at an airflow speed of 2 m/s orlower.

Total pressure − Static pressure = Dynamic pressure (Pa)

Measurement of airflow rate by means of the Pitot tube
○ Set the tip straight pipe part of the Pitot tube inparallel to the flow. As the measurement points,
set the 10 points on each of two diameter linesthat cross each other at the right angle on themeasurement pipe cross section, 20 points in total,
as shown in the formula on the right. However, as
this method requires substantial time and effort, it
is not suitable for commercial use.
○ Use of a composite Pitot tube, in which Pitot tubes
in large number are used, is convenient.
○ Method to obtain approximate flow rate bymeasuring the maximum airflow speed at thecenter of pipe with a single Pitot tube
Flow rate = Maximum airflow speed × Pipe crosssection area × 0.9

Depending on the pipe layout, the flow may be disturbed, which may affect the measurement accuracy.
Therefore, when installing a Pitot tube, we recommend securing a sufficient straight pipe length equal to or greater than thecorresponding value in the table below.
