Abstract
The purpose of this thesis was to develop a technique for calibrating the spherical pitot tube so that an accurate set of calibration curves could be obtained. These calibration curves permit one to evaluate the constants Kl, K2, K3, K4, KS, and K with which a complete flow calculation can be made for a given flow system.
