Karteikarten: Fundamentals of Temperature Measurement — 10 Karten

Kelvin scale — starting point?

Begins at absolute zero (0 K).

Temperature conversion — formula?

K = °C + 273.15.

Molecular vibration — role?

Indicates thermal energy and temperature.

Thermocouple — principle?

Uses Seebeck effect to generate voltage.

Thermistor — resistance change?

Resistance decreases as temperature increases in NTC types.

Shape change measurement — method?

Bending of bimetallic strips due to thermal expansion.

Seebeck effect — phenomenon?

Voltage generated by temperature difference across conductors.

Absolute zero — significance?

Point where molecular motion ceases.

Thermocouple voltage — proportional to?

Temperature difference between junctions.

Thermistor — key characteristic?

Resistance varies predictably with temperature.
