Abstract
Air flow measurements are very important in technological processes. A new air flow measurement method is proposed. The method is based on the interaction of air flow with the end of a fiber waveguide located in the flow. As the result of this interaction, random high frequency vibrations are generated in the fiber waveguide. The stochastic transducers are created for the realization of this method. The stochastic transducer consists of the fiber waveguide, the piezoceramic element and the preamplifier
