Dang. I've listened to a ton of people and watched as many youtube videos. You sir, have hit the nail on the head. I am now confident and ready to work. Thank you.
Amazing video! Finally understood how to correctly use a pitot tube and feel confident enough to conduct my testing! Thank you so much, everything well explained, it all makes sense now!
Thank you Pritesh. Next video series will be on the design, assessment and measurements to be taken at Captor Hoods (such as welding hoods). Ideas for teaching videos always welcome.
nice explanation. Thanks. Further I have few query n my mind. What will be the effect on static pressure and total pressure if their is damaged in duct line and addition air infiltrating into the duct apart from the design please.
How should I interpret the Negative Static pressure you measure? To get Total Pressure do I add the negative static pressure value to the Velocity Pressure? Or do in use the absolute value of the measured (and negative) static press (ie treat it as a positive value)?
Thanks, gave me the basics so I can build my own pitot tube to measure the airflow in my dust collection system. Now I just need to figure how to make and calibrate a manometer.
@@aykutgurkan7008 Thanks for the tip. If you have a suggestion of a better way to make and use cheap/free home made sensors and instruments to gauge the performance of a dust collection system in a hobby work shop, I'm most definitely interested. Actually though, the big worry is that a big chunk of something will get sucked through one of the blast gates, rattle down the duct and smash the pitot tube, or get hung up on the pitot, clogging the duct, which is why I rejected...blah blah 3d printed impeller...encoder from an old mouse...blah blah Arduino...display....wires...code..of some sort inside the duct. All I really care about is relative performance so a water column and some marks on the wall showing how much vacuum I can pull when the filter is clean and the system is working is maybe a slightly better system than "Huh, the dust hood for the miter saw isn't working all that well today....maybe I ought to dump the dust bin"
How do I measure this on a large air handling unit fan with a large duct? Where my pitot tube can't even reach the middle of the duct because the cross sectional area is so large?
Thank you a lot for this amazing helpful video, but I have a question,How I can measure the airflow for a compressed air system using this device to check the compressor efficiency ?
Please help me understand log-Tchebycheff method. How are the traverse points placed? Are there any mathematical formulas used to know their locations in the cross-sectional area? Thanks. I'll really appreciate a feedback as soon as possible.
It can be used only to measure air flows in a ducted system. Duct leakage is usually measured from pressure loss using a manometer. You might find this document useful:- tc0502.ashraetcs.org/documents/presentations/Need_for_Duct_Leakage.pdf
Sorry - I do not monitor this question log - but here is your (very) late answer. The full formula is (for metric conversions only) - V (velocity) = SQRT(Vp/0.5p) where p = air density. But in most cases we use Pitots in duct at around 20C where the air density is 1.2Kg/m3. If we put that figure into the main equation we could reduce it/simplify it to V=1.29SQRT(Vp) ...... but ONLY if the air in the duct is around 20C - otherwise you need to use the full equation.
Sir we know V = ✓2gh where h equals to velocity pressure and volume equals to area of duct x velocity . Now how do you find V= 1.29✓velocity pressure . Somewhere I find V= 1096.7✓velocity pressure ÷ density where density is 1.23 lb/ cu ft air at barometric pressure 29.45 hg column and atmosphere temp is 460 + 75 °f . . Pl text how do u find 1.29 ?
Explained in a very simple, nice and easy manner. Easy to understand. Thank you

Sir, you have an amazing pedagogical gift. Great tutorial.

Great video on Pitot and Velocity measurements!
Thank you so much for your great video
Thank you for the tutorial. I'm a NEBOSH Diploma student and have exam questions on LEV systems and transport velocity. Really helpful.
superb....amazing work..you are doing very helpful work for Engineering students......Thank you.........Keep it up.......

IM1 mate ? :p
Thanks, You are a very good lecturer
Well explained Sir. Thank you!
Salute you Sir for the knowledge you provide here. Very useful.
Very well explained sir
LOVE the tunes! Oh and learned about Pitot!!
useful video I understand the Pitot tube, but we are looking for briefing note for more information as you mentioned in your video.
Very well explained! Thanks.

Very well explained
Great video, thank you, you made it simple and clear.
Super helpful. thank you mister
Thank you! the class was very helpful!
You are most welcome. More videos coming over the summer
can this unit be used to measure cfm air movement in a vacuum or compressed air tube of 1/2 inch ID diameter?

I do not recommend using a pitot in dust collecting units. Small holes in the pitot tube can become blocked.

Ah! Then you need a big Pitot. You can purchase Pitots up to 3m long to my knowledge.
Thanks a lot.
Thank you a lot for this amazing helpful video, but I have a question,How I can measure the airflow for a compressed air system using this device to check the compressor efficiency ?
Hi Ahmad. Difficulty would be getting the instrument into the pipe and yet maintaining a seal. Not sure it can work in your application? Regards, Bill

amazing !!! I'm building a wind tunnel and I'm looking for a pitot tube to,measure the air speed...
If you need help in identifying suppliers drop me an email to bill@oxyl8.com
Thank you

Sir what is 1.29 and how this no you find ? Pl share .

thank you so much super stuff
Very good!
Can you please share the pdf
Why readings are minus ..?
Thanks
Awesome thanks
Sir we know V = ✓2gh where h equals to velocity pressure and volume equals to area of duct x velocity .
Now how do you find V= 1.29✓velocity pressure .
Somewhere I find V= 1096.7✓velocity pressure ÷ density where density is 1.23 lb/ cu ft air at barometric pressure 29.45 hg column and atmosphere temp is 460 + 75 °f . .
Pl text how do u find 1.29 ?
good job
Anybody know how the 1.29 constant was derived?
that's the weight of Air
@@matreyasouthgate2184 that is the density of air.....
So you kept saying it was accurate from 90 to 70? Where is the accuracy?
❤️
Well explained. Thank you, sir!
