2. Thermowell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermowell

   The thermowell protects the instrument from the pressure, flow-induced forces, and chemical effects of the process fluid. Typically a thermowell is made from metal bar stock. The end of the thermowell may be of reduced diameter (as is the case with a tapered or stepped-shank thermowell) to improve the speed of response.

3. Thermocouple - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermocouple

   Hydrogen in the atmosphere is the usual cause of green rot. At high temperatures, it can diffuse through solid metals or an intact metal thermowell. Even a sheath of magnesium oxide insulating the thermocouple will not keep the hydrogen out. [15] Green rot does not occur in atmospheres sufficiently rich in oxygen, or oxygen-free.

4. 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.

5. Temperature measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_measurement

   The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has developed two separate and distinct standards on temperature Measurement, B40.200 and PTC 19.3. B40.200 provides guidelines for bimetallic-actuated, filled-system, and liquid-in-glass thermometers. It also provides guidelines for thermowells. PTC 19.3 provides guidelines for temperature ...

6. Pirani gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirani_gauge

   An alternative to the Pirani gauge is the thermocouple gauge, which works on the same principle of detecting thermal conductivity of the gas by a change in temperature. In the thermocouple gauge, the temperature is sensed by a thermocouple rather than by the change in resistance of the heated wire.

7. Thermopile - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermopile

   Thermocouples can be connected in series as thermocouple pairs with a junction located on either side of a thermal resistance layer. The output from the thermocouple pair will be a voltage directly proportional to the temperature difference across the thermal resistance layer and also to the heat flux through the thermal resistance layer.
