Abstract

A total temperature probe comprising a hollow elongate shroud defined by a shroud wall that envelops a first cavity. The shroud wall is comprised of an inner skin and an outer skin which enclose a second cavity therebetween. A temperature sensor mounted in the first cavity. In use, fluid flow is received into the first cavity, passes through at least one aperture in the inner skin into the second cavity and then passes out of the shroud through at least one aperture in the outer skin. Beneficially, heat conduction across the inner skin is minimal.
