    Abstract: An angle of attack sensor includes a housing and a faceplate. A vane assembly extends through a central opening of the faceplate and includes a vane. The vane comprises a root, a tip, a leading edge, a trailing edge, a first lateral face, and a second lateral face. The first lateral face and the second lateral face are symmetric about a chord of the vane and each have a forward section with an outer surface profile that is nonlinear and geometrically convex from the leading edge to a transition point at a tangent to the widest point of the geometrically convex outer surface profile and each have an aft section with an outer surface profile that extends out to form a diverging wedge shape from the transition point to the trailing edge.

    Abstract: A methodology includes circulating a temperature-controlled and flow-rate-controlled medium through a container at a controlled flow rate and submerging a thermistor with the medium. With the thermistor submerged, a power output of the thermistor is determined and compared to a power criterion, after which classification of the thermistor occurs based on a comparison of the power output to the power criterion. The methodology can include submerging a reference thermistor within the medium and determining a reference power output of the reference thermistor with the reference thermistor submerged within the medium, the power criterion determined based on the reference power output.
