The thermoelectric inhomogeneity of wires is one of the main components of the measurement uncertainty when using thermocouples.
During calibration, it is therefore important to determine how much the inhomogeneities affect the measurement result. Thermoelectric
inhomogeneity is normally assessed by gradual, or step-wise, insertion of a thermocouple into a furnace or liquid bath. With
this type of equipment, the length that can be scanned is typically limited to about half a meter. To assess thermoelectric
inhomogeneity over greater lengths, it is necessary to adopt a different technique. Therefore, an apparatus with a short,
movable heating zone has been set up and evaluated. The apparatus produces a short, well-defined heating zone that is moved
along the thermocouple while both the measuring and reference junctions are kept at 0 °C. Heating is done by means of a hot-air
fan that produces a temperature-controlled heating zone up to 700 °C. Two directionally controllable cold-air fans, one on
each side of the heating zone, make it possible to vary the slopes of both temperature gradients of the heating zone. Two
temperature gradients influence the thermocouple when performing measurements of inhomogeneity with this setup. The results
are, therefore, not directly comparable to the results from measurements taken in a bath or furnace, where only one temperature
gradient is present. The resulting curve obtained with the two gradients is approximately equivalent to the derivative of
the curve obtained with one gradient. It is possible to convert the two-gradient curve to a single-gradient curve by numerical
integration, as shown in this work. Comparisons with inhomogeneity measurements obtained using salt baths show good agreement
with the calculated results. 相似文献

CETIAT’s calibration laboratory, accredited by COFRAC, is a secondary thermometry laboratory. It uses overflow and stirred calibration baths \((\hbox {from} -\,80\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C} \hbox { up } \hbox { to } +\,215\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C})\), dry blocks and furnaces \((\hbox {from } +\,100\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C} \hbox { up } \hbox { to } +\,1050\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C})\) and thermostatic chambers \((\hbox {from } -\,30\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C} \hbox { up } \hbox { to } +\,160\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C})\). Typical calibration uncertainties that can be reached for platinum resistance thermometers in a thermostatic bath are between \(0.03\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C}\) and \(0.06\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C}\). In order to improve its calibration capabilities, CETIAT is working on the implementation of a gas-controlled heat pipe (GCHP) temperature generator, used for industrial sensor calibrations. This article presents the results obtained during the characterization of water GCHP for industrial applications. This is a new approach to the use of a heat pipe as a temperature generator for industrial sensor calibrations. The objective of this work is to improve measurement uncertainties and daily productivity. Indeed, as has been shown in many studies (Dunn and Reay in Heat Pipes, Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1976; Merlone et al. 2012), the temperature of the system is pressure dependent and the response time, in temperature, follows the pressure accordingly. Thanks to this generator, it is possible to perform faster calibrations with smaller uncertainties. In collaboration with INRiM, the GCHP developed at CETIAT works with water and covers a temperature range from \(+\,30\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C}\) up to \(+\,150\,{^{\circ }}\hbox {C}\). This device includes some improvements such as a removable cover, which allows us to have different sets of thermometric wells adjustable according to the probe to be calibrated, and a pressure controller based on a temperature sensor. This article presents the metrological characterization in terms of homogeneity and stability in temperature. A rough investigation of the response time of the system is also presented in order to evaluate the time for reaching thermal equilibrium. The results obtained in this study concern stability and thermal homogeneity. The homogeneity on 200 mm is better than 5 mK and with a calibration uncertainty reduced by a factor of three. 相似文献

The calibration of platinum-based thermocouples from 420 °C to 1,100 ˚C is currently carried out at INRIM making use of two
different apparatus: for temperatures below 930 ˚C, a potassium gas-controlled heat pipe (GCHP) is used, whereas a metal-block
furnace is adopted for higher temperatures. The standard uncertainty of the reference temperature obtained in the lower temperature
range is almost one order of magnitude better than in the higher temperature range. A sealed copper cell was investigated
to see if it could be used to calibrate thermocouples above 930 ˚C with a lower uncertainty than our current procedures allowed.
The cell was characterized with Type S and Pt/Pd thermocouples and with an HTPRT. The freezing plateaux were flat within 0.01 ˚C
and lasted up to 1 h with a repeatability of 0.02 ˚C. The temperature of the cell was determined with a standard uncertainty
of 0.04 ˚C. Hence, the copper cell was found to be superior to the comparator furnace for the calibration of platinum-based
thermocouples because of the significant decrease in the uncertainty that it provides. An analysis was also carried out on
the calibration of Pt/Pd thermocouples, and it was found that the combined use of the potassium GCHP and the Cu fixed-point
cell is adequate to exploit the potential of these sensors in the range from 420 °C to 1,084 °C. A comparison with a fixed-point
calibration was also made which gave rise to agreement within 0.07 ˚C between the two approaches. 相似文献

Type R thermocouples are widely used and convenient high-temperature transfer standards; however, the achievable accuracy
is limited by the effects of inhomogeneity and hysteresis. In this article, we summarize the results of the recent international
comparison APMP-T-S1-04 and discuss the results of the thermoelectric scanning, spatially resolved over the length of the
thermocouples. The thermoelectric signatures show both reversible (hysteresis) and irreversible inhomogeneities introduced
by the calibration processes used by the participants. The results demonstrate that although the reversible hysteresis of
Type R thermocouples limits their performance as a transfer standard in thermometry, this can be managed by appropriate design
of the comparison protocol. By performing all calibrations from lower to higher temperatures from an initial 450°C anneal
state, a pilot laboratory reproducibility of typically 0.03°C (k = 2) and a reference value uncertainty of 0.03–0.06°C (at k = 2) over 0–1,100°C were achieved. This allowed statistically significant testing of the calibration capabilities of all
the participants. 相似文献

Thermocouples are increasingly used in industry and research. For many industrial heating processes, particularly those carried
out at high temperatures, a thermocouple is the most convenient and simple instrument for temperature measurement. In some
instances, it is the only feasible method. The aim of this study is to select and recommend the best thermocouples from both
base and noble metals to users in industrial and scientific institutions. Different types of thermocouples and calibration
methods are described. From this work, the Nicrosil–Nisil thermocouple has been proposed as the best base metal thermocouple
and the Au/Pt thermocouple is the most recommended as a substandard up to 1,000 °C. 相似文献

The objective of the EUROMET Project No. 844 in the field of thermometry was the intercomparison of the freezing temperatures
of the copper fixed-point cells (t
90 = 1084.62°C) of the participating laboratories by using Pt/Pd thermocouples. For most of the 13 participating laboratories,
agreement of the freezing temperatures of the different copper fixed points within ±0.06 K was found. Furthermore, the results
of the intercomparison show that Pt/Pd thermocouples are suitable for use as transfer standards for the dissemination of temperatures
and to approximate the ITS-90, at least up to the freezing point of copper. 相似文献

The use of a heat hydraulic accumulator (HHA) for thermal stabilization of the evaporation zone of a heat pipe (HP) has been proposed. The experimental setup for investigation of the heat pipe with a heat hydraulic accumulator has been described. Results of the experiments on this assembly have been presented. It has been shown that the installed heat hydraulic accumulator allows thermal stabilization of the evaporation zone of the heat pipe to a precision of 1°C. 相似文献

At NMIA, radiation thermometers are calibrated by comparison with a number of reference radiation thermometers which are themselves calibrated using fixed-point cells on the ITS-90 temperature scale (In, Sn, Zn, Al, Ag, and Au). The suitability of NMIA fixed-point cells used for standard platinum resistance thermometers (SPRTs) is evaluated by the comparison of ensembles of cells at each fixed point, and by participation in the international BIPM Key-Comparisons K3 and K4. However, the NMIA fixed-point cells used for radiation thermometry are typically much smaller (only 110 mm in length) and the thermowell length immersed in the metal much shorter (85 mm) than those used for SPRTs. Further, the insulation at the front of the crucible needs to accommodate the F/10 viewing cone of the radiation thermometers, so significant temperature gradients exist near the top of the crucible. As a consequence, the conduction errors obtained using SPRTs are too large to be of practical use. A convenient methodology based on the use of a Au/Pt thermocouple, together with a protective tube assembly to reduce conduction errors, has been developed. This allows the convenient measurement of the phase transition temperature traceable, at the 30 mK level, to the fixed-point cells used at NMIA to realize and maintain the ITS-90 scale. As the measurements are made in situ, the temperature environment, and hence the geometry and formation of the liquid?Csolid interface during melting and freezing, are similar to that occurring when used with radiation thermometers. Results are presented for ITS-90 fixed points up to Ag, establishing formal traceability of radiation thermometry fixed-point cells to NMIA??s primary ITS-90 cells. 相似文献
