Mass Air Flow Sensor (M.A.F)

Mass Air Flow Sensor (M.A.F)
...............................................

An air flow mass sensor has a platinum hot wire in the vent that stays hot at a certain temperature. When air passes through the vent it will cool down the hotwire, so more current is put through the wire to maintain its set temperature.

The amount of current put through to the platinum wire will calculate how much air mass is flowing through the vent.
