Abstract From the Canadian patent

A method for correcting the flow measurement of a gaseous fluid of interest for changes in the composition of that fluid in a flowmeter of the microanemometer class is disclosed in which an uncorrected flow value signal for the fluid of interest in relation to a microanemometer sensor output is corrected by applying a correction factor to the flow value signal based on certain unique physical parameters of the fluid of interest which nominally include thermal conductivity, k, specific heat, c p, and density q.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 2, 1989 and granted December 14, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 2, 2009.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 2, 2011.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
