Abstract: An inlet air flow temperature sensor 28 includes a hollow body 32 connected in fluid communication with an inlet air flow 25 a temperature sensing device 34 carried by the hollow body. The hollow body 32 includes interior portions that define a tortuous path of air flow P. The tortuous path of air flow 49 reduces water accumulation on the temperature sensing device 34. The inlet air flow temperature sensor 28 may be used to sense temperature of an inlet air flow 25 associated with an evaporatively cooled combustion turbine 24 that has a combustion turbine air inlet 30 to receive the inlet air flow 25. The evaporatively cooled combustion turbine may, in turn, be used to drive an electrical generator 22.
