A new edge-detected lift force flow sensor

A lift force gas flow sensor which uses the force normal to the fluid flow to measure the flow velocity has recently been introduced. Two thin plates mounted at an angle are deflected when they are subjected to fluid flow. For most mechanical flow sensors the flow sensitivity is closely connected to the time response. A weaker structure gives higher flow sensitivity but a lower natural frequency, i.e., a slower response time. The lift force sensor is designed for measurements of respiratory gas flow in ventilators, where, in addition to low flow restriction, both high sensitivity and fast response are required. A new type of suspension has now been realized for the lift force flow sensor. The detection is separated from the suspension of the airfoil plate with the strain gauges placed on separate detector beams. This leads to separate parameters for optimization of the lift force concept with "independent" control of flow sensitivity and natural frequency. This paper presents an analytical model, simulations and measurements on the new structure. The new edge-detected sensor has been experimentally evaluated for different lengths (100-600 /spl mu/m), widths (20-100 /spl mu/m) and thicknesses (8-20 /spl mu/m) of the detector beams. In accordance with the theory, the measurements show that the new structure has approximately three times the natural frequency of the old, center detected structure and similar or improved flow sensitivity. The evaluation has also resulted in a design scheme for optimal performance. A flow sensitivity of 0.65 /spl mu/V/V/(l/min)/sup 2/ has been obtained for the best edge-detected sensor with a natural frequency of 3.2 kHz.

Design and fabrication of a hybrid silicon three-axial force sensor for biomechanical applications

This paper presents the design and development of a silicon-based three-axial force sensor to be used in a flexible smart interface for biomechanical measurements. Normal and shear forces are detected by combining responses from four piezoresistors obtained by ion implantation in a high aspect-ratio cross-shape flexible element equipped with a 525 μm high silicon mesa. The mesa is obtained by a subtractive dry etching process of the whole handle layer of an SOI wafer. Piezoresistor size ranges between 6 and 10 μm in width, and between 30 and 50 μm in length. The sensor configuration follows a hybrid integration approach for interconnection and for future electronic circuitry system integration. The sensor ability to measure both normal and shear forces with high linearity (99%) and low hysteresis is demonstrated by means of tests performed by applying forces from 0 to 2 N. In this paper the packaging design is also presented and materials for flexible sensor array preliminary assembly are described.
