Static pressure
When saying pressure we usually refer to static pressure which is the pressure due to the random movement of the molecules on a certain speed V1
- Measured by the static pressure orifice
where
T : Temperature
S : Entropy
όπου
u : πυκνότητα εσωτερικής ενέργειας αερίου --> Internal energy
Total pressure
The pressure if we stopped the flow entirely V2=0
When local velocity is 0 the total pressure is the same with static pressure
- Measured by the pilot tube
Dynamic pressure
The pressure due to the velocity
Relation for stagnation point :
Total pressure= Static pressure + Dynamic pressure
(only for Incompressible flow - derivates from Bernouli's Equation )
Pressure coefficient
For Incompressible flow ( derivation from Bernouli's Equation) :

For V=0 : Pressure coefficient at stagnation point:
