In a pitot tube, the kinetic energy is converted into _________(a) potential energy(b) total energy(c) pressure energy(d) internal energyThis question was posed to me at a job interview.This key question is from Pitot Tube topic in division Inviscid & Incompressible Flow of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Correct choice is (c) PRESSURE energy

To ELABORATE: When the VELOCITY of the flow becomes zero, the pressure is increased due to the conversion of kinetic energy into pressure energy which LEADS to the generation of the pressure difference.
