  2. Distributed temperature sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_temperature...

    Distributed temperature sensing systems (DTS) are optoelectronic devices which measure temperatures by means of optical fibres functioning as linear sensors. Temperatures are recorded along the optical sensor cable, thus not at points, but as a continuous profile. A high accuracy of temperature determination is achieved over great distances.

  3. Silicon bandgap temperature sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_bandgap...

    The silicon bandgap temperature sensor is an extremely common form of temperature sensor (thermometer) used in electronic equipment. Its main advantage is that it can be included in a silicon integrated circuit at very low cost.

  4. List of temperature sensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_temperature_sensors

    The integrated circuit sensor may come in a variety of interfaces — analogue or digital; for digital, these could be Serial Peripheral Interface, SMBus/I 2 C or 1-Wire.. In OpenBSD, many of the I 2 C temperature sensors from the below list have been supported and are accessible through the generalised hardware sensors framework [3] since OpenBSD 3.9 (2006), [4] [5]: §6.1 which has also ...

  5. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    If the process requires a very fast response to temperature changes (fractions of a second as opposed to seconds), then a thermocouple is the best choice. Time response is measured by immersing the sensor in water moving at 1 m/s (3.3 ft/s) with a 63.2% step change. Size

  6. Heat flux sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_flux_sensor

    One should avoid air gaps between layers in the test stack. These can be filled with filling materials, like toothpaste, caulk or putty. If need be, thermally conductive gel can be used to improve contact between layers. [8] A temperature sensor should be placed on or near the sensor and connected to a readout device.

  7. Distributed acoustic sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_acoustic_sensing

    Typical applications include continuous monitoring of pipelines for unwanted interference and for leaks or flow irregularities; monitoring of power cables for unwanted interference and cable faults; [4] [5] monitoring traffic (roads, railways [6] [7] and trains [8]), borders, and other sensitive perimeters [9] for unusual activity; and even oil ...

  8. Thermal conductance and resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    The SI unit of absolute thermal resistance is kelvins per watt (K/W) or the equivalent degrees Celsius per watt (°C/W) – the two are the same since the intervals are equal: ΔT = 1 K = 1 °C. The thermal resistance of materials is of great interest to electronic engineers because most electrical components generate heat and need to be cooled.
