An example of a calibration curve for a hot-wire anemometer is shown in Figure 1.3. It is natural for the flow to have a certain amount of fluctuation, say superimposed on a mean value This will manifest as a fluctuation on the volatge generated in the experimental setup. The relationship between and is determinded as follows: From the calibration curve, we have
