ENGINE MASS AIR FLOW METER
At Ford Motor Company, one car engineering concept that has been under development for several years is a precision engine air input measuring meter. Using both temperature and pressure sensors to normalize incoming air calculations, this vortex shedding principle meter constantly reports at a high electronic data rate to mass air inflow to the engine. Key elements of this composite device are economical, wide range, high accuracy sensors.
