ABSTRACT:
Temperaature sensors at the inlet and outlet of a heat exchanger are utilized in the disclosed apparatus to measure the temperature of the fluid and to ascertain the the time taken by a localized gradient in heated or cooled fluid to pass through the heat exchanger at the start of a heating or cooling episode in order to obtain the flow rate of fluid through the heat exchanger; a representation of the flow rate is stored; and thereafter, during that heating or cooling episode, the stored flow-rate representation is utilized in deriving flow-rate and energy transfer measurements.
