1. A sensor assembly, comprising:
a sensor connector;
a mounting portion spaced apart from the sensor connector;
a thermal shunt portion extending from the mounting portion; and
a housing portion having the sensor connector mounted thereon and extending from the thermal shunt portion, wherein the housing portion is arranged on a side of the thermal shunt portion opposite the mounting portion to limit heat conducted to the sensor connector;
wherein the thermal shunt portion comprises an airfoil structure extending between the housing portion and the mounting portion of the sensor assembly;
wherein the airfoil structure comprises an airfoil having a leading edge, wherein the leading edge extends from the mounting portion to the housing portion of the sensor assembly.
