Abstract
An air flow rate meter for ascertaining the mass of the air flowing through an intake tube of an internal combustion engine. The air flow rate meter includes a temperature-dependent measuring resistor, which as a resistance wire is stretched out in an aperture of a carrier body and is disposed, as is a reference resistor, as an element in a common electrical bridge circuit. The carrier body protrudes into a flow cross section through which the air flows, and the reference resistor is wound, in the form of a reference resistor wire, on a partial segment spaced apart from the aperture. A compensating resistor is disposed in the aperture upstream of the measuring resistor and spaced apart as far as possible from the reference resistor.
