Abstract
A flow rate measurement device of the present invention includes a flow rate signal detection unit for detecting a flow rate signal of a fluid to be measured flowing through flow path, flow rate calculation unit for calculating a flow rate from the flow rate signal detected by the flow rate signal detection unit, and oscillation circuit for generating a reference clock. Furthermore, the flow rate measurement device includes temperature calculation unit for calculating a temperature from a frequency change resulting from a temperature change of oscillation circuit, and flow rate correction unit for correcting the flow rate calculated by the flow rate calculation unit by obtaining an offset flow rate at a desired temperature based on the temperature calculated by temperature calculation unit. Thus, accuracy of flow rate measurement can be improved.
