Abstract: A linear variable differential pitot tube includes a primary solenoid, a first secondary solenoid, a second secondary solenoid, wherein the primary solenoid is positioned in between the first secondary solenoid and the second secondary solenoid, wherein the first secondary solenoid and the first secondary solenoid have identical geometries, and a high permeability magnetic core, the high permeability magnetic core being structured to move relative to the primary solenoid, the first secondary solenoid, and the second secondary solenoid. Also, a system and method for measuring the localized velocity of a flow of a fluid using the linear variable differential pitot tube.
