Abstract
A transmitter provides an output signal indicative of mass flow rate of fluid through a conduit. The transmitter includes a temperature sensor providing a temperature signal indicative of fluid temperature. A static pressure sensor provides a static pressure signal indicative of static pressure in the conduit. A differential producer provides a differential pressure signal. The transmitter also includes a controller which provides the output signal indicative of mass flow of the fluid through the conduit.
