Vectoflow's 14-hole Omniprobes are designed for applications where angle of flow is unknown or where backflow is to be expected. They can measure angles of attack up to ±160°, as well as a range of other aerodynamic and thermodynamic parameters including speed and static and total pressure.
Omniprobes are available with straight or L-shaped geometries, and can be manufactured from a variety of materials including stainless steel, titanium, Inconel, plastic, aluminum and more. All probes are expertly calibrated in Vectoflow's purpose-built wind tunnels, and calibrated data is provided to the customer along with a binary file that can be used to evaluate the measurement data with our post-processing libraries or VectoVis Pro software.
