A SILICON FLOW SENSOR FOR HIGHLY ACCURATE MASS FLOW MEASUREMENT

Michel J. A. M. van Putten, Pascal F. A. M. van Putten
Abstract:
We describe a thermal, silicon integrated, mass flow sensor for highly accurate mass flow measurements over a large dynamic range. Offset-drift is completely eliminated by application of the VanPutten-ADM method. The method is illustrated using air. The total measurement uncertainty is typically < 1% of reading, with a turndown larger than 1:1000.
