RTD was organized in 1969 and is governed by a 15-member, publicly elected Board of Directors. Directors are elected to a four-year term and represent a specific district of about 180,000 constituents. [4] RTD currently operates a bus and rail system that has a service area of 2,342 square miles (6,070 km 2). It currently runs 86 local, 23 ...
Many RTD elements consist of a length of fine wire wrapped around a heat-resistant ceramic or glass core but other constructions are also used. The RTD wire is a pure material, typically platinum (Pt), nickel (Ni), or copper (Cu). The material has an accurate resistance/temperature relationship which is used to provide an indication of temperature.
RTA was created after a referendum in 1974. In 1973, CTA had instituted its first major service cuts, [6] and several suburban bus companies, including Evanston Bus Company and Glenview Bus Company had ceased operations, forcing Evanston to make arrangements with CTA and Wilmette to start a municipal service.
In July 2016, the Regional Transportation District (RTD) opened the initial 6.2-mile (10 km) section of the B Line from Denver to Westminster. An unfunded extension to Boulder and Longmont is planned for the 2040s. [19] This commuter rail line overlaps part of the route that later emerged as the favorite for Front Range Passenger Rail. [20]
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.
