Now consider what happens when air is flowing by a total air temperature probe on an aircraft. If the aircraft is effectively stationary, the probe will measure the static air temperature T... due to the average thermal motion of the air molecules hitting it. If the aircraft has a true air speed,... the temperature measured by the probe will clearly increase because of the extra translational energy of the air molecules hitting it.
