Abstract

A method of flow estimation during CPAP treatment is disclosed and involves measuring turbine (32) speed by means of the motor's Hall-effect sensors (80). The equivalent pressure, P est, that would be developed by the turbine (32) for that measured speed if the flow were zero is estimated using a predetermined mathematical function. Coincidentally with the speed measurement and pressure estimation, the delivery tube pressure, P act, is measured by the pressure transducer (42), and from P act together with P est, the difference between the two pressures is calculated, representing an estimation of flow, f est. The flow estimation value can be linearised by the square root device (86), and then filteredby the combination of low pass and high pass filters (90, 92) to derive a filtered flow estimate value, that has the non-respiratory components removed. A method of flow compensation of flow-induced pressure swings also is disclosed.
