  • Air Mass Sensor
    Publication number: 20240183699
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the teachings herein include an air mass sensor for determining an air mass flow rate. The sensor may include: a housing defining an electronics chamber; and sensor electronics at least partly located in the electronics chamber. The housing defines a duct providing passage for a gas to flow through the housing. The housing defines an opening connecting the duct and the electronics chamber. The electronics chamber forms a pressure compensation volume for the duct.
