Abstract:
Methods and apparatus to determine airflow conditions at an inlet of an engine are disclosed herein. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a sensor disposed at an inlet of an engine to measure a pressure characteristic, a temperature characteristic and a velocity characteristic of an airflow moving through the inlet and a processor to determine an air mass flow rate based on the pressure characteristic, the temperature characteristic and the velocity characteristic measured at the engine inlet.
