Abstract
The equations required for the calculation of characteristic curves of flow sensors are presented including anemometers, calorimeters, time of flow, flow parallel wire, volume displacement, and pressure lost over a capillary. The specific advantages and drawbacks of the different measurement principles are explained and discussed.
