Flow conditioning device

摘要

The present invention is generally directed towards an air induction system in a motor vehicle. The air induction system comprises an air filter, a clean air duct, a mass air flow sensor housing duct, a mass air flow sensor and a flow conditioning device. The flow conditioning device is disposed inside a mass air flow sensor housing duct. The flow conditioning device is located upstream from the mass air flow sensor. The air flowing through the clean air duct encounters turbulence near the walls of the duct. The flow conditioning device prevents the turbulent air from flowing into the mass air flow sensor.
