Accurate measurement of static pressure requires great care
Henri Pitot (1695-1771) Arman in France
Astronomer and Mathematician
1732 measured velocity between two piers of a bridge over the Seine River in Paris
Measured the variation of the velocity with the depth of the river
Velocity was thought to increase with depth - Misconception
Pitot measured and reported that velocity decreases with the increase of the depth
Pitot used this tube before present formof Bernoullis equation was introduced in 1738
People got all wrong results because of not measuring static pressure
Prof. John Airey (Mech. Engg) University of Michigan performed series of experiments
1913
1915 Prof. Herschel and Dr. Buckingham International standards

Along a streamline
In general, it is not easy to evaluate this integral because the variation of cV/ct along
the streamline is not known.
