The inventive temperature sensor (10) may include a housing having an upper portion (18) and a lower portion (22). Upper portion (18) may include a cap (24) and a base (26). Cap (24) and base (26) may define a fluid passage (70) which is configured for enhancing the flow of ambient air into the region of a wall (60). A hole (54) may extend into wall (60) and be sized for receiving a temperature sensor (14) therein. In that manner, a temperature sensing device (58), such as a thermistor, may accurately and precisely measure the temperature of ambient air, while being protected by wall (60). |
