ABSTRACT:
A flow sensor element is provided having at least one temperature-measuring element and at least one heating element each having at least one platinum thin film resistor, the at least one temperature-measuring element and the at least one heating element each being arranged on a carrier element which is formed from a ceramic foil laminate or a multi-part ceramic component. The carrier elements have electrical conductor paths and junction surfaces for electrically contacting the at least one temperature-measuring element and the at least one heating element. The at least one temperature-measuring element and the at least one heating element each have a metallic carrier foil with an electrically insulating coating, on which the platinum thin film resistors are arranged. The flow sensor element may be used for mass through-flow measurements of gaseous or liquid media in pipe ducts, for example in an exhaust gas pipe of an internal combustion engine.
