  2. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    The two most common ways of measuring temperatures for industrial applications are with resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) and thermocouples. The choice between them is typically determined by four factors. Temperature If process temperatures are between −200 and 500 °C (−328.0 and 932.0 °F), an industrial RTD is the preferred option.

  3. 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.

  4. RTD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTD

    Resistance Temperature Detector, a resistance thermometer; RTD is also used to rate or describe plywood manufacturing processes where RTD sensors significantly reduce the delamination caused by insufficient heating of the plywood during the press cycle.

  5. 3ω-method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3ω-method

    The 3ω-method can be accomplished by depositing a thin metal structure (generally a wire or a film) onto the sample to function as a resistive heater and a resistance temperature detector (RTD). The heater is driven with AC current at frequency ω, which induces periodic joule heating at frequency 2ω (since P = I 2 R {\displaystyle P=I^{2}R ...

  8. Temperature measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_measurement

    Resistance temperature detector (RTD) Pyrometer; Langmuir probes (for electron temperature of a plasma) Infrared thermometer; Other thermometers; One must be careful when measuring temperature to ensure that the measuring instrument (thermometer, thermocouple, etc.) is really the same temperature as the material that is being measured.

  9. International Temperature Scale of 1990 - Wikipedia

    For higher temperatures, expected values for T − T 90 are below 0.1 mK for temperatures 4.2 K – 8 K, up to 8 mK at temperatures close to 130 K, to 0.1 mK [3] at the triple point of water (273.1600 K), but rising again to 10 mK at temperatures close to 430 K, and reaching 46 mK at temperatures close to 1150 K.
