Abstract
A flow rate measurement system outputs a measurement value which represents a magnitude of a flow rate and a flow direction of a fluid that flows through a particular main passage. The system includes a bypass passage disposed in the main passage, a detection unit disposed in the bypass passage that outputs a detection value corresponding to a magnitude of a flow rate and a flow direction of the fluid flowing through the bypass passage, and a calculation unit that, by using the detection value, calculates the measurement value by compensating as needed for a delay in the change in flow rate in the bypass passage with respect to the change in flow rate in the main passage. The compensation is based on whether a change of flow direction has occurred in the main passage or the bypass passage.
