    → pitot tube is an device used for the measurement or calculating the velocity of flow at any point is a pipe or a channel.
    It is based on the principal that if the velocity of flow at a point become zero, the pressure there is increased due to the conversion of the kinetic energy into pressures energy.
    → Simple pilot tube can be used to measure static head, dynamic head and total head.
