What is the difference between an Oxygen Sensor and a Mass Air flow Sensor in a 2001 VW Jetta?

The oxygen sensor is more commonly known as a lambda sensor at it monitors the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gasses going through the exhaust, the Mass air flow meter monitors the incoming air coming through the air intake before it enters the engine.

What is the Thermal Mass Flow Meter Working Principle?

The thermal mass meter measures gas flow based on the concept of convective heat transfer. The Sage flow meters are available in either inline flow bodies or insertion-style. The meter’s probe inserts into a gas stream of a pipe, stack, or duct in either case. Toward the tip of the meter’s probe are two sensors. These sensors are resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) or resistance thermometers and measure temperature. The RTDs consist of durable reference-grade platinum windings clad in a protective 316 SS or Hastelloy C sheath. One of the RTDs is heated by an integrated circuit and functions as the flow sensor, while a second RTD acts as the reference sensor and determines the gas temperature. The Sage proprietary circuitry maintains a continuous overheat between the flow sensor and reference sensor. As gas flows by the heated RTD, flowing gas molecules transport heat away from it, and as a result, the sensor cools, and the energy is lost. The circuit balance disrupts, and the temperature difference (ΔT) between the heated RTD and the reference RTD changes. Within a second, the circuit restores the lost energy by heating the flow sensor to adjust the overheat temperature. The electrical power required to sustain this overheat denotes the mass flow signal.
