This lecture covers the concept of isentropic measurements, focusing on the static pressure in a flow. It explains how to measure static pressure, including using a hole in a probe or a wall. The lecture also discusses the stop pressure measurement on a probe's 'nose' and the principles of measuring static pressure in an isentropic flow. Additionally, it explores the use of Pitot probes for measuring total temperature in aircraft, emphasizing the importance of maintaining performance in adverse weather conditions.
