If we substitute Equation 13:3 in Equation 13:2 the dynamic pressure can be computed
using Equation 13:4,
Equation 13:4 – Dynamic Pressure using AdvWaterSpeed
= 0.5 × × (× )
Knowing the Dynamic Pressure (Pd) and the Total Pressure (P0) – the static pressure
can then be computed using Equation 13:5,
Equation 13:5 – Static Pressure
=
If we substitute Equation 13:4 in Equation 13:5 the final equation for correcting the
pressure measured by the FlowTracker2 internal pressure sensor is defined in Equation
13:6
,
Equation 13:6 – Corrected Pressure
=
0.5 × × (× 2)
