Abstract: Ford Motor Company is involved in accurately measuring the air mass flow rate into their internal combustion engines for meeting the required level of pollutant output and for improved fuel economy. In this endeavor, Ford has constructed many different flow stands which measure air mass flow rates during various development and manufacturing processes. To be assured that each flow stand is measuring the mass flow correctly, Ford has implemented a Measurement Assurance Program (MAP). This paper focuses on the Measurement Comparison Program (MCP) portion of the MAP. It describes the physical hardware (artifact) which consists of piping sections and three Critical Flow Venturis (CFV). The MAP artifact has been used for interlaboratory comparison.
