Abstract From the Canadian patent

Abstract, A fluid flow sensor especially adapted for use in solid state electronic system.The sensor employs a heated thermistor in a first sensing network with a temperature compensation means, the two being connected in common to a sensor point. A second network includes a threshold adjusting means and a diode power supply fluctationcircuit connected to a threshold point. The two networks are connected in a bridge circuit across a power supply.
