Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for measuring airflow. In one example, an airflow monitor includes an ion generator positioned in a controlled space, an ion detector positioned in the controlled space and spaced from the ion generator, and a controller configured to receive a signal from the ion detector, to measure a time between emission of ions from the ion generator and detection of ions at the ion detector, and to calculate a speed of airflow between the ion generator and the ion detector based on the measured time.
