The invention provides a device and method for measuring
jet flow total pressure in a large-flow lateral
jet flow test, the device comprises a model storage chamber, a total pressure probe and a
pressure sensor, one end of the model storage chamber is provided with a mounting port, the total pressure probe is mounted in the mounting port, the detection end of the total pressure probe extends into a detection chamber of the model storage chamber, and the
pressure sensor is arranged in the detection chamber. The
pressure sensor is fixedly installed at the end, located outside the model storage chamber, of the total pressure probe, the other end of the model storage chamber is communicated with the air supply pipeline, and a
jet flow opening communicated with the jet
pipe is formed in the position, corresponding to the detection end of the total pressure probe, of a detection cavity of the model storage chamber. According to the method for measuring the jet total pressure, the flow state in the model storage chamber is simulated through numerical
simulation, pressure distribution of the model storage chamber is obtained, so that the positions of pressure measuring points are accurately screened, a total pressure probe is designed on the basis, the total pressure at the measuring points can be transmitted to a pressure sensor, and then more accurate jet total
pressure data compared with a traditional method are obtained.
