Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The nonvortex ultrasonic pneumotachograph estimates airflow by projecting pulsed sound waves along the longitudinal axis of the flowmeter. The theory is that the speed of the ultrasonic wave transmission is influenced by the rate of gas flow through the device, which is the Doppler ef-fect.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The variable-orifice pneumotachograph is a disposable, bidirectional, flow-measuring device that uses a flexible obstruction with a variable area for measuring flow as a function of the pressure differential generated by the obstruction. Turbine flowmeters, thermal anemometers, and vortex ultrasonic flowmeters are all unidirectional.
