ABSTRACT:
A flow sensor eliminates turbulence of fluid flow due to a structure of the temperature detecting portion so that a temperature of the temperature detecting portions does not fluctuate due to the turbulence of the fluid. The flow sensor is formed on a substrate. Each of a first temperature detecting portion and a second temperature detecting portion has a heating function and a temperature detecting function, and are arranged along a direction of flow of the fluid. A supporting portion is formed on the substrate for supporting the first and second temperature detecting portions thereon. The supporting portion does not have a side surface facing substantially in the direction of flow of the fluid. A side surface of the supporting portion is protected by a guard portion formed along the side surface.
