Annubar
The Annubar primary element is an averaging Pitot tube manufactured by Rosemount Inc.[1] used to measure the flow of fluid in a pipe.
A Pitot tube measures the difference between the
volumetric flow is calculated from that difference using Bernoulli's principle, taking into account the pipe's inside diameter.[2]
An Annubar, as an averaging Pitot tube, takes multiple samples across a section of a pipe or duct, averaging the differential pressures encountered accounting for variations in flow across the section.
