Which of the following instruments can be used to measure the rate of air flow?
β’ Difference between measuring temperature, air speed/flow, and humidity β’ Common uses of anemometers, psychrometers, and aerometers β’ How air flow (or wind) is typically quantified in science and navigation
β’ For each instrument, ask: what physical property does it primarily measure? β’ Which of these instruments would be used when you care about how fast air is moving through space, such as wind or duct flow? β’ Which of these instruments would be more appropriate in a weather or ventilation context versus a laboratory density or temperature context?
β’ Be clear on the definition of air flow rate (movement of air per unit time) versus temperature or humidity β’ Match each device to its main measurement: temperature, air movement, humidity, or density β’ Eliminate any instruments that do NOT directly measure how quickly air is moving
