Abstract: An air flow rate measurement device includes a flow rate detection unit, a detected flow rate response compensation unit, a pulsation amplitude calculation unit, a correction value calculation unit, and an error correction unit. The flow rate detection unit detects a detected flow rate. The detected flow rate response compensation unit advances a response time of the detected flow rate and calculating a compensation flow rate which is an output obtained by compensating for a response delay of the detected flow rate. The pulsation amplitude calculation unit calculates a pulsation amplitude correlated with a pulsation amplitude in the detected flow rate. The correction value calculation unit calculates a pulsation correction value which is a value for correcting the compensation flow rate based on the pulsation amplitude. The error correction unit corrects the compensation flow rate based on the pulsation correction value.

Abstract: In a measurement control device that measures an airflow, an amplitude calculator calculates, by use of an output value of a sensor, a pulsation amplitude that is a difference between a pulsation maximum and an average airflow or a difference between the pulsation maximum and a pulsation minimum. The pulsation maximum is a maximum value of pulsation generated in the airflow, the average airflow is an average value of the pulsation, and the pulsation minimum is a minimum value of the pulsation. A correction parameter acquirer acquires a correction parameter corresponding to the calculated pulsation amplitude by use of a correction characteristic. An airflow corrector corrects the airflow by use of the acquired correction parameter.

Abstract: A flow rate measurement system outputs a measurement value which represents a magnitude of a flow rate and a flow direction of a fluid that flows through a particular main passage. The system includes a bypass passage disposed in the main passage, a detection unit disposed in the bypass passage that outputs a detection value corresponding to a magnitude of a flow rate and a flow direction of the fluid flowing through the bypass passage, and a calculation unit that, by using the detection value, calculates the measurement value by compensating as needed for a delay in the change in flow rate in the bypass passage with respect to the change in flow rate in the main passage. The compensation is based on whether a change of flow direction has occurred in the main passage or the bypass passage.

Abstract: A physical quantity measurement device that measures a physical quantity of a fluid has an inflow port and an outflow port, and includes a passage flow channel, a branch flow channel, and a physical quantity detector. An inner peripheral surface of the passage flow channel extends over a pair of facing surfaces, which face each other across the flow passage boundary portion and the inflow port on an upstream side of the flow channel boundary portion. The inner peripheral surface further includes an inflow step surface which forms a step facing the inflow port side.

Abstract: A physical quantity measurement device includes a housing forming a measurement flow path through which the fluid flows and a container space that houses a part of a detection unit. An inner surface of the housing includes a housing intersecting surface that intersects an arrangement direction in which the measurement flow path and the container space are arranged, a housing flow path surface extending from the housing intersecting surface toward the measurement flow path, and a housing container surface extending from the housing intersecting surface toward the container space. The housing includes a housing partition that protrudes from the inner surface toward the detection unit and contacts the detection unit between the housing and the detection unit such that the housing partition separates the measurement flow path and the container space from each other.

Abstract: A plate-like flow sensor is located in a bypass passage such that a front-to-rear direction of the flow sensor is substantially along a width direction of the bypass passage. The flow sensor divides a flow from its upstream into a first flow, which passes on its front side, and a second flow, which passes on its rear side. The bypass passage has a bent portion in which the first flow and the second flow merge on a downstream side of the flow sensor. A flow deflection unit changes a turning quantity of at least one of the first flow and the second flow such that a turning quantity of the first flow and a turning quantity of the second flow are substantially conformed in the bent portion.

Abstract: A physical quantity measurement device includes a housing forming a measurement flow path in which a sensor support supports a physical quantity sensor. The measurement flow path includes a sensor path in which the physical quantity sensor is disposed, an upstream curved path between the sensor path and an inlet, and a downstream curved path between the sensor path and an outlet. The housing includes a measurement narrowed portion that gradually narrows the measurement flow path in a direction from the inlet toward the physical quantity sensor. An upstream end of the sensor support is provided upstream of the measurement narrowed portion in an arrangement cross section along an imaginary straight line passing through the physical quantity sensor and extending in an arrangement direction in which the upstream curved path and the downstream curved path are arranged.

Abstract: A physical quantity measurement device includes a housing forming a through flow path, and a measurement flow path branching from the through flow path. A physical quantity sensor is provided in the measurement flow path. An inner surface of the housing includes an inlet ceiling surface and an inlet floor surface which face each other and define an inlet through path that is between and connects an inlet of the through flow path and an inlet of the measurement flow path, The inlet ceiling surface includes a ceiling inclined surface that extends from the inlet of the through flow path and is inclined with respect to the inlet floor surface. A distance between the ceiling inclined surface and the inlet floor surface gradually decreases in a direction from the inlet of the through flow path toward an outlet of the through flow path.
