  2. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    A standard RTD sheath is 3.175 to 6.35 mm (0.1250 to 0.2500 in) in diameter; sheath diameters for thermocouples can be less than 1.6 mm (0.063 in). Accuracy and stability requirements If a tolerance of 2 °C is acceptable and the highest level of repeatability is not required, a thermocouple will serve.

  3. Thermocouple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermocouple

    The table below describes properties of several different thermocouple types. Within the tolerance columns, T represents the temperature of the hot junction, in degrees Celsius. For example, a thermocouple with a tolerance of ±0.0025× T would have a tolerance of ±2.5 °C at 1000 °C.

  4. Test probe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_probe

    A thermocouple probe. Temperature probes are used to make contact measurements of surface temperatures. They employ a temperature sensor such as a thermistor, thermocouple, or RTD, to produce a voltage that varies with temperature. In the case of thermistor and RTD probes, the sensor must be electrically stimulated to produce a voltage, whereas ...

  5. Temperature measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_measurement

    Resistance temperature detector (RTD) Pyrometer; Langmuir probes (for electron temperature of a plasma) Infrared thermometer; Other thermometers; One must be careful when measuring temperature to ensure that the measuring instrument (thermometer, thermocouple, etc.) is really the same temperature as the material that is being measured.

  6. Callendar–Van Dusen equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callendar–Van_Dusen_equation

    The Callendar–Van Dusen equation is an equation that describes the relationship between resistance (R) and temperature (T) of platinum resistance thermometers (RTD). As commonly used for commercial applications of RTD thermometers, the relationship between resistance and temperature is given by the following equations.

  7. 3ω-method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3ω-method

    The 3ω-method can be accomplished by depositing a thin metal structure (generally a wire or a film) onto the sample to function as a resistive heater and a resistance temperature detector (RTD). The heater is driven with AC current at frequency ω, which induces periodic joule heating at frequency 2ω (since P = I 2 R {\displaystyle P=I^{2}R ...

  8. Seebeck coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seebeck_coefficient

    In thermocouples the Seebeck effect is used to measure temperatures, and for accuracy it is desirable to use materials with a Seebeck coefficient that is stable over time. Physically, the magnitude and sign of the Seebeck coefficient can be approximately understood as being given by the entropy per unit charge carried by electrical currents in ...

  9. Thermowell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermowell

    A temperature sensor, such as a thermometer, thermocouple, or resistance temperature detector, is inserted in the open end of the tube, which is usually in the open air outside the piping or vessel and any thermal insulation. Thermodynamically, the process fluid transfers heat to the thermowell wall, which in turn transfers heat to the sensor ...
