Kielhead design

[zole00]

Hello,
I am new to this forum, and it looks pretty good.
My new project I am working on is temp/pressure kielhead design.
It will be used in inlet guide vane and high pressure compressor of a jet engine to measure pressure and temperature.
I do not have too much experience in that area, so I am just wondering if someone can provide me some basic idea about dimensions/drawings.
Thanks for all answers.

Sorry, is your question 'about dimensions/drawings' or about the actual engineering?

For general questions on drawings & dimensioning forum1103 may be a better place to look.

Hello Kenat,

I am looking for the design and drawings of temperature/pressure kielhead, or at least samples of it.
I do not have too much experience in that area, soo I am trying to find anything that could help me design the kielhead and rakes as well.
Thanks.

Thanks for the link Mike.
I found that one already, but need some more samples as well.
It is really hard since Google gave me only that one.

I wondered why it's called a Kiel-head instead of, say, a Smith-head, or a Jones-head. Here's why:
