The measurement of shear stresses developed by a boundary layer is a fundamental problem of fluid dynamics. Knowing the mean shear stress and its fluctuations leads to a better description of the boundary layer and a better understanding of flow noise coupling. The shear stresses to be measured in a laminar or a turbulent flow amount to only a few pascal. The usual types of piezoelectric force sensors cannot perform this measurement with a satisfactory accuracy. The proposed sensor performs a direct measurement of shear stresses. It is composed of several piezoelectric bimorphs, which convert a very low force into a large amount of electrical charge. The typical device sensitivity is 200 nC N−1. Integrating the shear stresses on a surface of a few square centimetres allows shear stresses to be measured down to 1 Pa.
