  2. 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.

  3. International Temperature Scale of 1990 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Temperature...

    It defines fourteen calibration points ranging from 0.65 K to 1 357.77 K (−272.50 °C to 1 084.62 °C) and is subdivided into multiple temperature ranges which overlap in some instances. ITS-90 is the most recent of a series of International Temperature Scales adopted by the CIPM since 1927. [ 1 ]

  4. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    This “strain free” design allows the sensing wire to expand and contract free of influence from other materials; in this respect it is similar to the SPRT, the primary standard upon which ITS-90 is based, while providing the durability necessary for industrial use. The basis of the sensing element is a small coil of platinum sensing wire.

  5. Scale of temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_of_temperature

    This definition also precisely related the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, which defines the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature with symbol K. Absolute zero, the lowest temperature possible, is defined as being exactly 0 K and −273.15 °C. Until 19 May 2019, the temperature of the triple point of water was defined as exactly 273.16 ...

  6. INCA (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INCA_(Software)

    A host of functions required for ECU software calibration, such as interface-dependent calibration methods, calibration data management, measurement data visualization and analysis, ECU programming, vehicle bus monitoring, as well as remote control through standard interfaces, are part of the product's functional complement.

  7. Rankine scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankine_scale

    Similar to the Kelvin scale, which was first proposed in 1848, [1] zero on the Rankine scale is absolute zero, but a temperature difference of one Rankine degree (°R or °Ra) is defined as equal to one Fahrenheit degree, rather than the Celsius degree used on the Kelvin scale.

  8. Dry-bulb temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry-bulb_temperature

    The dry-bulb temperature (DBT) is the temperature of air measured by a thermometer freely exposed to the air, but shielded from radiation. [1] The dry-bulb temperature is the temperature that is usually thought of as air temperature, and it is the true thermodynamic temperature. It is directly proportional to the mean kinetic energy of the air ...

  9. Garnet-biotite geothermometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garnet-biotite_geothermometry

    The garnet biotite thermometer correlates temperature with the partitioning of Fe and Mg in coinciding garnet and biotite. [1] The garnet-biotite thermometer has been "calibrated" many times since the 1970s by both experimental and empirical methods, however Ferry and Spear's 1978 experimental calibration study [ 2 ] is reported thoroughly and ...
