  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. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    Resistance thermometers, also called resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), are sensors used to measure temperature. 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 ...

    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 ...

    These include helium vapor pressure thermometers, helium gas thermometers, standard platinum resistance thermometers (known as SPRTs) and monochromatic radiation thermometers. Although the Kelvin and Celsius temperature scales were (until 2019) defined using the triple point of water ( 273.16 K or 0.01 °C ), it is impractical to use this ...

    A 29-year-old man’s debilitating night terrors were the first sign of rare autoimmune disorder that rapidly progressed, landing him in the intensive care unit in a “catatonic state.” Ben ...

  9. Thermal conductivity measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductivity...

    The wire is immersed in a fluid and can act both as an electrical heating element and a resistance thermometer. The transient hot wire method has advantage over the other thermal conductivity method since there is a fully developed theory and there is no calibration or single-point calibration.
