Discover LudwigThe phrase "air velocity sensor" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to measuring the speed of air, often in scientific, engineering, or environmental discussions.
Example: "The air velocity sensor was installed to monitor the airflow in the ventilation system."
Alternatives: "airflow meter" or "wind speed sensor".
Exact(2)
If the air velocity sensor readings are directly used to calculate the average airflow rate with the cross section areas, the airflow rates will be underestimated in most cases.
Although there is no regulation about specifications for air velocity sensor locations, carbon monoxide or smoke sensors are required to be installed near the center in the upper third of the entry, in a location that does not expose personnel working on the system to unsafe conditions (30 CFR 75.351).

In reality, the readings from the AMS air velocity sensors are all single-point readings.
The air velocity sensors are mounted about 0.3 m (1 ft) below the roof at each monitoring station.
Air velocity sensors may be mounted below the roof and at the centerline to avoid interfering with mine operations.
Based on Rowland et al.'s (2017) survey of 235 U.S. underground coal mines, 21 of the mines are using air velocity sensors.
To avoid interference with moving equipment and miners, air velocity sensors might be installed at the corner close to the roof and ribs.
With the application of fixed-point air velocity sensors for the AMS, the question arises as to how the readings from these sensors can be related to average air volume flow rate.
The active ventilated facade with a PCM, suggested by Diarce et al. [38], was studied in a PASLINK test cell with temperature probes and also employed air velocity sensors and pyranometers.
When there are installations of air velocity sensors in the mining industry for real-time airflow monitoring, a problem exists with how the monitored air velocity at a fixed location corresponds to the average air velocity, which is used to determine the volume flow rate of air in an entry with the cross-sectional area.
An effective method for obtaining the appropriate sensor location correction factor is to measure the air velocity at the sensor location.
