Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a probe (10) of a thermal, flow measuring device for measuring mass flow of a liquid in a measuring tube, wherein the method comprises steps as follows:introducing a probe core comprising a hard solder and a core element into a first probe sleeve, wherein the first probe sleeve has an open first end and a closed second end away from the first end; melting the hard solder; affixing the core element by cooling the hard solder to a temperature less than the solidification temperature; applying a thermoelement to a contact area of the core element or of the solidified hard solder. The invention relates, furthermore, to a probe resulting from the manufacturing process as well as to a flow measuring device having at least one probe of the invention.
Abstract:
A thermal, flow measuring device for determining and/or monitoring a mass flow of a measured medium through a measuring tube, comprising a sensor having a first heatable resistance thermometer and at least a second heatable resistance thermometer, wherein the sensor has a longitudinal axis and an end face, which is divided into at least two adjoining segments, wherein a surface normal vector of at least a first segment forms with the longitudinal axis of the sensor an angle of at least 5°; and use of a thermal, flow measuring device.
Abstract:
A method for determining mass flow of a gas by means of a mass flow meter, which has a first and a second temperature sensor, which can be flowed around by the gas. The first temperature sensor is heated with a heating power Q, wherein the mass flow of the medium is determined by means of a power coefficient PC=Q/ΔT as a function of a heating power Q and a temperature difference ΔTm=T1−T2 between the measured values of the temperature sensor. A corrected power coefficient PCcorr is determined, wherein at least one correction occurs by means of at least one recovery correction term Ki, wherein the recovery correction term Ki has the form Ki=Δx·u2/(2·cp), wherein u is the flow velocity and cp the heat capacity of the medium, Δx is an element of the set {Δ1; Δ2; Δ12}, Δ1:=e1−cr, Δ2:=e2−cr and Δ12:=e1−e2=Δ1−Δ2, e1 and e2 are the recovery factors of the first, respectively second, temperature sensors, and wherein cr is a constant reference value, for which holds cr≦1, especially cr=1.

Abstract:
A temperature sensor comprising a housing having a housing body and a housing chamber, in which housing chamber are arranged terminally two temperature sensor elements, which are especially embodied as thin-film resistance thermometers, one of the temperature sensor elements is heatable, and from each temperature sensor element at least one connection wire leads away, which is connected with a circuit board. The circuit board is arranged in the housing chamber. The circuit board is positioned in the housing chamber by a snap-in connection. A connection wire of a first temperature sensor element is led with strain relief in a first direction through the circuit board and connected with such. The housing chamber contains at least a first elastic body. The circuit board has a first number of cavities, for connection of connection wires and/or cables and a second number of cavities, for reducing thermal expansion of the circuit board. Also presented is a thermal, flow measuring device.
