How Do Temperature Measuring Devices Work?
In general, temperature measurement works by using a sensor to detect the temperature of an object or environment and then convert that reading into a unit of measurement. The most common type of sensor used in temperature measuring devices is a thermocouple, which consists of two wires made from different metals that are joined at one end. When the junction between the two wires is exposed to heat, a voltage is generated that can be measured to determine the temperature.
Other types of sensors used for measuring temperature range include:
- Thermistors
- RTDs
- Infrared sensors
- Pyrometers
Each type of sensor has its own advantages and disadvantages, so it's important to choose the right sensor for your particular application.
