<p>Microprocessor-based thermal dispersion mass flow meters (i.e., thermal anemometers) are described that use temperature sensing elements in its flow sensor probe(s) in addition to the two elements commonly used. Such systems allow for automatically managing changes in gas selection, gas temperature, gas pressure, and outside temperature. One mass flow meter described has a flow sensor with four temperature sensing elements, wherein one pair is provided in a temperature sensor probe and another pair in a velocity sensor probe. Another variation operates without a separate temperature sensor probe and integrates all function into a single three-sensor probe. Such a device may also be used in conjunction with a one- or two-sensor temperature probe.</p> |
