Abstract

In many processing industries, it is essential to measure either the flow rate or just to know whether the flow or no flow conditions exists. The change in resistance measures the prevailing temperature differential in the flow pipe.  The temperature difference could be related to flow rate or flow or no-flow conditions. This may be achieved by the selection of right sensor, signal conditioning circuit and display.
