Air velocity
March 1st 2004

A new ultrasonic anemometer has been introduced by Airflow Developments. It has a compact ultrasonic sensor that measures clean air velocity to 30m/sec, volume flow and air temperature.

Direct display of percentage turbulence intensity means a method of calculating indoor draught around a person can now be determined. This is an important when assessing the indoor environment because maintaining adequate air movement without creating draughts is key to creating a healthy atmosphere for people to live and work in.

The UA30 Anemosonic anemometer is unaffected by changes in temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure or air/gas density variations.

By sensing at 3840/sec, any changes in ambient conditions are rendered irrelevant.
