Most mass flow monitoring techniques calculate mass indirectly by measuring volumetric flow such as gallons per minute or cubic cm per second, then either measure density separately or calculate it from temperature measurements of the fluid and, finally, combine density and volumetric flow to obtain mass flow. The SIERRA INSTRUMENTS thermal-differential technique is one of two methods that directly measure the mass flow. For ease of comparison most flow applications are presented in terms of velocity which is independent of the flow cross sectional area (i.e. feet per second (FPS)). The true mass flow equivalent would be FPS multiplied by density but for simplicity FPS is used and density effects are ignored. This is normally not critical for flow switching applications.
