ABSTRACT:
A non-intrusive duct system is disposed in a component of an air vehicle. The component has an external surface in a free stream flow. The duct system is disposed substantially flush with such external surface and is disposed with respect to the free stream flow to receive such flow. The duct system receives a portion of the free stream flow and conveys such portion through the duct system such that the portion bears a known relationship to the free stream flow. A flow data sensor for sensing a parameter of the portion of free stream flow is suitably disposed with respect to the duct system to be affected by the portion of flow therethrough and to sense such parameter. The duct system has a flow control apparatus disposed in the duct system to control the portion of flow such that the portion of flow is compatible with the sensing capabilities of the flow data sensor throughout the range of rates of free stream flow over which sensing of a parameter thereof is desired. In a preferred embodiment, the flow data sensor is a total temperature sensor.
