Thermocouple and its Principle
A thermocouple consists of two pieces of dissimilar metals with their ends joined together (by twisting, soldering or welding). When heat is applied to the junction, a voltage, in the range of...

Difficulties with Thermocouples for Temperature Measurement
The thermocouple is a simple, widely used component for measuring temperature. Thermocouple Theory A thermocouple, shown in Below Figure, consists of two wires of dissimilar metals joined together at one...
Thermocouple Working Principle
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...
Basics of Thermocouples and RTD
Thermocouples What are Thermocouples? Thermocouples are temperature sensors. They operate under the principle that the junction of two dissimilar metals (forming a closed circuit) produces a measurable voltage (electromotive force)...
