ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for accurately metering liquid flow based on the injection of a brief heat pulse into the flowing stream, e.g., via a miniature thermistor, and detection of an electronic time derivative of temperature downstream with, e.g., a second microprobe thermistor. This detection triggers a subsequent heat pulse and the cycle repeats, wth pulse total corresponding to elapsed liquid throughput, and pulse frequency to flow rate.
