چکیده

We report here a novel two-mode mass flowmeter that can be operated in either thermal or differential pressure mode. By combining these two complementary operating principles, the performance can be improved significantly. This flowmeter is based on a multi-sensor chip that includes a 1-D array of shear stress, pressure and temperature sensors. The multi-sensor chip can also be employed in many other complicated channel flow studies. Extensive tests have been carried out on shear stress sensors to evaluate the effects of overheat ratio, channel height and gas properties.

Studies on MCM–D interconnections

In the context of the development of the ATLAS Pixel Detector [1], a multi chip module technology called MCM–D (multi chip module deposited) has been studied to implement the high density interconnect. The results of some first assemblies using ’standard’ sensor designs have been reported in [2]. The focus of this note is on the first results of assemblies optimized to the capabilities of this ...
