Abstract

Outstanding features of micromachined calorimetric sensors make these devices well suited for measuring the thermal properties of resting liquids. Based on a novel 3D analytical model, essential design rules for the realization of optimized membrane-based thermal property sensors can be derived. These theoretical results are verified by measurements obtained from a device prototype.
