<p>Direction-sensitive flow-rate indicator for gaseous or liquid media. It comprises a semi-conductor substrate on which for each dimensional direction at least one thermocouple is arranged, in which the connecting-leads of the ends of each thermocouple extend in the direction-of-flow component of the medium and are, at least about, perpendicular to each other. It also comprises a heating-element for generating a flow-rate dependent temperature-difference in the flowing medium in the longitudinal direction of the said thermocouples, which results in a flow-rate dependent thermo-voltage between the ends of the thermocouples.</p> |
