Abstract

A direct-heated gas-flow measuring apparatus including a measuring tube disposed in the gas stream, a film resistor for generating heat and detecting the temperature thereof, and a feedback control circuit for controlling the heat generated by the film resistor so that the temperature of the film resistor is a predetermined value. Provided in a supporting portion of the film resistor for supporting it to the measuring tube is an aperture for throttling the heat transfer thereof.
