Characteristics of thermal mass flowmeters:
- Directly measures mass flow without temperature/pressure compensation.
- Based on heat transfer between a heating element and fluid.
- High precision, especially for small flows; fast response.
- No throttling parts, minimal pressure loss.
- Suitable for clean gases and low-viscosity liquids.
- Sensitive to fluid properties (thermal conductivity, etc.) and ambient temperature.
- Limited temperature range; higher cost than volume flowmeters.
