The paper deals with experimental investigation and comparative analysis of velocity measurements in ducted axial fan. Experiments were carried out to investigate the nature of velocity variations in a ducted axial fan at different throttle positions as a function of rotor speed employing both Pitot tube and Hot Wire Anemometer. Quantitative analyses of the magnitudes of velocity measured by a pitot tube as well as a hot wire anemometer are examined and various graphs have been plotted. The percentage errors of velocity level have been determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
