ABSTRACT:
A fan in a duct driven by a permanent magnet D.C. motor powered by a constant voltage source varies in speed according to the airflow through the duct. The current drawn by the motor is a direct function of the air speed and the density. The motor current is measured to provide a measure of mass airflow.
