Abstract :
We present the first micromachined metal hot-wire anemometer sensor for use in near-wall turbulence measurements. To measure close to the surface without the circuitry interfering with the flow, a novel hybrid assembly of the sensor has been developed. We present the design, fabrication and characteristics of this sensor.
