ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for measuring the flow of fluid through a main supply line having a restrictive element therein to develop a pressure drop. A shunt fluid flow path bypasses this element. The shunt path includes a conduit having a first electrically heated portion and an unheated portion, each portion respectively having a temperature sensing device associated therewith. Means are provided for varying the voltage supplied to an electrical heater for the first conduit portion to maintain a constant temperature difference between the temperature sensing devices, the amount of voltage supplied being a function of the characteristics of fluid flow through the main supply line.
