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.
