Micromachined Shear Stress Sensors for Flow Control Applications

  • Conference paper
IUTAM Symposium on Flow Control and MEMS

Part of the book series: IUTAM Bookseries ((IUTAMBOOK,volume 7))

Abstract

This paper reviews existing microelectromechanical systems-based shear stress sensors in the context of their suitability for various flow control situations. The advantages and limitations of existing devices for use in flow control systems are discussed. Unresolved technical issues are summarized and recommendations provided for future sensor development.
