The velocity measuring technique described in this paper consists of measuring the time of flight of a tracer of heated air from an electrically pulsed wire to one of two sensor wires which are operated as resistance thermometers. These sensor wires are at right angles to the pulsed wire and are placed one on either side of the pulsed wire. The instrument may be used in highly turbulent flows including regions in which flow reversals occur. The paper discusses the theoretical behaviour of the probe and the results of some calibration experiments.
