Abstract

A thermal flow measuring device and method for the manufacture of a thermal flow measuring device with a housing, which has at least one shell. A temperature sensor element is arranged in the shell which borders the housing. Each first point of an edge terminating the outside of the shell in the region of a second end section of the shell has a distance to the longitudinal axis of the shell, which is at least 0.2 mm greater than the distance of all second points of the outside of the shell to the longitudinal axis of the shell, with a first point of the edge, in each case, having a distance projected on the longitudinal axis of the shell from the first point of the edge of at least 0.2 mm in the direction of the first end section of the shell.
