Pitot pressure is the pressure that can be measured by a Pitot tube, with an open-ended tube facing into the oncoming fluid with the other end closed off.The stationary fluid can be connected to a pressure-measuring device, or used in various devices.
An interactive electronic technical manual (IETM) is a portal to manage technical documentation. IETMs compress volumes of text into just CD-ROMs or online pages which may include sound and video , and allow readers to locate needed information far more rapidly than in paper manuals.
The basic technology of the pitometer log is similar to that of the pitot tube on an aircraft. Typically, the pitometer has a long tube that penetrates the ship's hull near the keel. The part of the pitometer protruding from the ship is sometimes called a pit sword or rodmeter. This tube usually has two openings: one facing the direction of ...
