Imagine a turbocharger trying to pressurize a carburetor with its small venturis and finicky floats and you can get some idea why electronic fuel injection opened the door to big boost, big power, big ...

Industrial and chemical processes ranging from brewing to polymerization depend on delivery of accurate quantities of gases or liquids. It is possible to measure rates of delivery in terms of either ...

As today's science and engineering focuses more and more on micro technology, the requirement to be able to measure and control extremely low gas mass flow rates has become very important. With ...

Developed in the 1960s, mass flow devices are important components in systems that generate the specialty gas standards needed to calibrate a wide range of instruments that analyze gases. Mass flow ...

In differential pressure-sensing applications for gasses, using a mass flow sensor often improves low-flow resolution, resulting in a much finer level of control. The problem is, in dusty environments ...

Like piezoresistive, piezoelectric, and capacitive sensing techniques devices, sensors based on thermal microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have enabled motion sensing in accelerometers. These ...
