Abstract: Method for monitoring a fluid flow within a pipeline (10). A sensor unit (2) for implementation of the method is brought into direct contact with the medium. It comprises one or more nano-components (2N) that are caused to vibrate by the medium resulting in their deformation. The deformation causes a change in their resistance. The properties of their vibration are measured and or the change in their electrical resistance. The measurements are used to determine fluid properties, e.g. mass flow rate, viscosity or density. The invention also relates to a corresponding device.
