Abstract
We have designed and fabricated the first direct differential micro Coriolis mass flow meter (MFM). The direct differential nature of the sensor allows for accurate measurement of small differences between large flows. The differential measurement is achieved by fabricating two parallel, mechanically coupled micro-channels. By applying the two mass flows in opposite direction, the detected mass flow is proportional to the difference in Coriolis force on the two channels. We demonstrated this sensing principle by detecting the amount of water evaporated from a solution by a preconcentrator.
