Abstract
Gradient-type heat-flux sensors (GHFSs) manufactured on the basis of anisotropic monocrystals of bismuth are proposed. These sensors can be used for measuring stationary and nonstationary heat flux as well as temperature, flowrate, and other parameters. It is shown that the multipurpose nature of the sensors makes it possible to considerably simplify experiments and increase their informational potentialities.
