Experimental Stand to Evaluate Engine Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor

In this paper an experimental setup was designed and realized in laboratory to test and measure the engine mass air flow sensor used in engine applications. The MAF sensor is installed usually between air filter and the intake manifold of the engine and measure the amount of air entering the engine or the air flow. A contaminated and failed mass air flow sensor shows a lower or higher air flow readings causing various drivability problems. The stand simulates the condition of function of MAF sensor by various air flows and temperature recording the flow by a pitot tube.
