Example
The difference of the volume flow rates of the channels A and B is to be calculated.
The physical quantity of the measuring channel A and B can be the volumetric flow
rate or the mass flow, but not the flow velocity. The physical quantities of the 2 measur-
ing channels do not need to be identical (channel A = mass flow, channel B = volumet-
ric flow rate).
