Abstract A theory of the effect of turbulence on the response of static pressure probes is given. To apply it to a given probe, the response in a laminar stream must be known as a function of orientation. Results are reported for Prandtl probes. For these the effect of turbulence is negligible at the levels encountered in pipe flows, but is highly significant at those prevailing in jets and other strongly turbulent systems. Experimental verification is given and the effect of turbulence length scale is demonstrated.
