Vectoflow's Multi-Hole-Probes
- Individually adaptable probes by 3D-Printing -
Our customized multi-hole-probes and systems measure the static and total pressure, the velocity and the angle of attack of a flow. The probes are easily adaptable in terms of geometry, size and material to your requirements, due to the innovative fabrication method used. The latter also increases the robustness of the probes significantly, making them usable in harsh environments.

Technology
Our core competence is the manufacturing and calibration of multi-hole-probes. They are easy to use and measure precisely the condition of a flow. The measurement method is based on Bernoulli’s principle, similar to a pitot probe.
The following flow parameters can be measured by evaluating the pressure distribution at the probe's tip:
