The basics don’t change much “’Sensing elements themselves are pretty stable in that they don’t tend to change,’ says Paul Gobeille, Stellar senior automation engineer. “For example, you’ll find that the theories behind thermocouples (T/Cs), RTDs (resistance temperature detectors), thermistors and infrared (IR) sensors presented in various sources are virtually the same as when they…
It’s only cheating if you get caught “When the F1 rule book changed in 2014, ushering in the current era of expensive, complicated, and overweight F1 cars, some of the regulations were meant to make the cars more fuel-efficient. One rule limits the cars to no more than 100kg of fuel during the race, and…
Mechanical (liquid-in-glass thermometers, bimetallic strips, bulb & capillary, pressure type etc.) Thermojunctive (thermocouples) Thermoresistive (RTDs and thermistors) Radiative (infrared and optical pyrometers) Mechanical Temperature Measuring devices Principle of Operation A change in temperature causes some kind of mechanical motion, typically due to the fact that most materials expand with a rise in temperature. Mechanical thermometers can be…
What is RTD? RTDs stands for ‘Resistance Temperature Detectors’ and they are generally referred to as ‘Resistance Thermometers’. RTD can be defined as a temperature sensor that operates on the measurement principle where the materials’ electrical resistance changes with temperature. The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) has defined the term resistance thermometer as follows:…
THERMOCOUPLES A thermocouple is made up of two dissimilar metals, joined together at one end, that produce a voltage (expressed in millivolts) with a change in temperature. The junction of the two metals, called the sensing junction, is connected to extension wires. Any two dissimilar metals may be used to make a thermocouple. Principle of…
