Eight-channel nano-CTA array

Featuring high-quality power conditioning, eight simultaneous A/D channels and user-selectable gain, this system offers a very powerful measurement capability. With a footprint of 75 mm x 45 mm driving eight ultra-miniature sensors, the system is easily integrated into models and, with our real-time visualization software, offers previously-unavailable integrated surface measurement capability.

Integrated nano-CTA array

With an array of wall-mounted sensors, any channel, pipe or duct could become a precision mass flow meter. Since the system does not rely on pressure differences, very low speed measurements are possible with near-zero head loss.

For internal or external aerodynamics, this sensor array can provide rich and detailed information about flow fields, flow separation and aerodynamics performance. Our surface-mountable sensors are minimally-intrusive, and can be installed on automotive bodywork.

With sensitivities down to 10 mm/s or lower, an array of surface-mounted nano-CTA units can be used to provide precision airspeed, incidence and sideslip to the air data computer- even in hover. With almost negligible mass, the sensor array provides an attractive alternative to conventional Pitot systems for small-scale UAVs.
