Pitot Tube Defined

An L-shaped, open tube, one end connected to a pressure measuring device, the other end placed in a flow with the opening facing the wind. Can be used to measure the total pressure of a flow (stagnation pressure). In conjunction with a static pressure measurement the flow velocity can be calculated, if the density of the fluid is known. A device, which combines both pressure measurements is a pitot-static tube (at least in Germany also called a Prandtl-tube).
Named after a Frenchman, Henri Pitot (1695-1771).
