    Abstract: A total air temperature probe includes a housing including an inlet scoop, an outlet, a main airflow passage extending from the inlet scoop to the outlet, an exit that extends through the housing, and a total air temperature sensor flow passage and a sensor assembly positioned in the total air temperature sensor flow passage. The main airflow passage includes an upper inlet surface extending from the inlet scoop, a lower inlet surface opposite the upper inlet surface and extending from the inlet scoop, an upper outlet surface extending from the upper inlet surface to the outlet, and a lower outlet surface opposite the upper outlet surface and extending from a split point in the housing to the outlet. The total air temperature sensor flow passage branches off from the main airflow passage and extends to the exit. The upper outlet surface is consistently concave toward the outlet.

    Abstract: A probe head of an air data probe includes a unitary body extending from a first end to a second end of the probe head and a rod heater. The body includes an inlet adjacent the first end of the probe head, an air passageway extending through the body from the inlet to the second end of the probe head, a water dam extending radially through the body such that the air passageway is redirected around the water dam, and a heater bore extending within the body. The rod heater is positioned within the heater bore.
