Zusammenfassung:Reliable flow sensor (100) including a sense resistor (130) and a refractory resistor (140) and with enclosures (110, 410) that have predictable thermal variations and reduced mechanical tolerances for a more consistent fluid flow and more consistent flow measurements. Thermal variations can be made predictable by using etched structures such as channels (420) in silicon blocks (110, 410). Mechanical tolerances can be reduced using lithography and high-precision semiconductor manufacturing equipment and techniques.
