Airflow
Airflow, or air flow, is the movement of air.
See Air flow meter and Airflow
Anemometer
In meteorology, an anemometer is a device that measures wind speed and direction.
See Air flow meter and Anemometer
Atmosphere of Earth
The atmosphere of Earth is composed of a layer of gas mixture that surrounds the Earth's planetary surface (both lands and oceans), known collectively as air, with variable quantities of suspended aerosols and particulates (which create weather features such as clouds and hazes), all retained by Earth's gravity.
See Air flow meter and Atmosphere of Earth
The cubic foot (symbol ft3 or cu ft),,. is an imperial and US customary (non-metric) unit of volume, used in the United States and the United Kingdom.
See Air flow meter and Cubic foot
Cubic metre per second
A cubic metre per second (m3s−1, m3/s, cumecs or cubic meter per second in American English) is the unit of volumetric flow rate in the International System of Units (SI) equal to that of a stere or cube with sides of in length exchanged or moving each second.
See Air flow meter and Cubic metre per second
Kilogram
The kilogram (also kilogramme) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), having the unit symbol kg.
See Air flow meter and Kilogram
List of sensors
This is a list of sensors sorted by sensor type.
See Air flow meter and List of sensors
Mass flow meter
A mass flow meter, also known as an inertial flow meter, is a device that measures mass flow rate of a fluid traveling through a tube. Air flow meter and mass flow meter are flow meters.
See Air flow meter and Mass flow meter
Mass flow sensor
A mass (air) flow sensor (MAF) is a sensor used to determine the mass flow rate of air entering a fuel-injected internal combustion engine. Air flow meter and mass flow sensor are flow meters.
See Air flow meter and Mass flow sensor
Minute
Minute is a unit of time defined as equal to 60 seconds.
Second
The second (symbol: s) is the unit of time in the International System of Units (SI), historically defined as of a day – this factor derived from the division of the day first into 24 hours, then to 60 minutes and finally to 60 seconds each (24 × 60 × 60.
Thermal mass flow meter
Thermal mass flow meters, also known as thermal dispersion or immersible mass flow meters, comprise a family of instruments for the measurement of the total mass flow rate of a fluid, primarily gases, flowing through closed conduits. Air flow meter and thermal mass flow meter are flow meters.
See Air flow meter and Thermal mass flow meter
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC, UNC-Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Chapel Hill, or simply Carolina) is a public research university in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Volume
Volume is a measure of regions in three-dimensional space.
