ABSTRACT:
A gas flow rate measuring apparatus for measuring the intake air flow rate of an automobile engine or the like is disclosed, which comprises a flow rate measuring tube containing an electric heater resistance wire and two temperature-dependent resistance wires, one subject to the effect of heat of the electric heater and the other free from the effect. An output signal of a voltage divider circuit including the series-connected temperature-dependent resistance wires is used to measure the gas flow rate. The electric heater resistance wire and the temperature-dependent resistance wire thermally affected thereby are wound side by side but avoiding occurrence of any short-circuit therebetween on a single support member of an electrically insulating material.
