Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFWhen the heat is applied to the joined ends of the wires of a thermocouple a small voltage is generated
Thermocouple:
- A thermocouple is a sensor used to measure temperature.
- Thermocouples consist of two wire legs made from different metals.
- The wire's legs are welded together at one end, creating a junction. This junction is where the temperature is measured.
- When the junction experiences a change in temperature, a voltage is created. The voltage can then be interpreted to calculate the temperature.
This is explained with the help of the following diagram:
