  • Publication number: 20240361165
    Abstract: A method for detecting bubbles or droplets of a first medium in a fluid second medium flowing through a measuring pipe includes: heating a first heating element and a second heating element, which are each arranged on the measuring pipe and at a distance from each other; simultaneously sensing a first ambient temperature at the first heating element by a first sensor and a second ambient temperature at the second heating element by a second sensor; determining a first variable of the first sensor corresponding to the first ambient temperature and a second variable of the second sensor corresponding to the second ambient temperature; forming a difference between the first variable and the second variable; and comparing an absolute value of the difference with a reference threshold value, wherein the presence of a bubble or droplet is detected when the absolute value at least briefly exceeds the reference threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20240210225
    Abstract: A thermal flow meter for measuring a flow rate of a gas includes: a measurement channel for guiding the gas between a channel inlet and a channel outlet; a thermal flow sensor disposed in the measurement channel; a density sensor including an oscillator operable to be acted upon by the gas; a temperature sensor element configured to determine a gas temperature; a pressure sensor element configured to determine a gas pressure; and a measuring-operating circuit configured to: determine a density value of the gas based on a natural frequency of the oscillator; identify a composition of the gas based on the density value, the gas pressure, and the gas temperature; and as a function of the composition, output a flow rate measured value corrected with respect to a cross-sensitivity of the flow rate to the composition of the gas based on flow rate-dependent signals of the thermal flow sensor.

  • Patent number: 9604615
    Abstract: In a method for carrying out a braking procedure in a vehicle having a hydraulic brake system, when the brake temperature exceeds a boundary value hydraulic fluid is intermediately stored in a storage chamber, and when brake fading occurs the hydraulic fluid is pumped back into the brake circuit.

  • Patent number: 7478888
    Abstract: An electronic vehicle service braking system having at least one braking cylinder and a pressure control module with a control chamber and a working chamber. The working chamber is connected to an air supply via a supply line, the control chamber is connected to the air supply via a connecting line and an inlet valve and to the atmosphere via an outlet valve. The control chamber is also connected to a back-up braking system via a back-up line and a back-up valve, and a control system is provided for controlling at least the inlet valve and the back-up valve. The control system controls the valves such that the back-up valve is opened together with the inlet valve, enabling air to flow into the control chamber when an ABS signal for a rise in pressure follows a drop in pressure.
