Back to: "T"temperature bulb
- Definição1
- A temperature-sensing device used with a ratiometer-type thermometer. A length of small-diameter nickel wire is wound around an insulator and enclosed in a thin stainless steel tube. This bulb is surrounded by the medium whose temperture is to be measured so the nickel wire can reach the same temperature as the medium. The resistance of the wire changes with its temperature, and a sensitive resistance-measuring instrument measures the resistance of the wire and displays this resistance in terms of degrees of temperature.
