thermotransducer

The temperature of gas flows is an important parameter during the research of heat and mass transfer processes, in the field of gas dynamics, as well as in manufacturing. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure a high level of requirements for the accuracy and reliability of the primary means of temperature measurement. The basic requirements are the simplicity of the design of the thermotransducer, its low thermal inertia, small dimensions, and high reliability during operation in aggressive environments at high temperature and pressure conditions.

The choice of ways of obtaining information about the temperature of the surface layers of a moving object is the crucial in determining  the  type of  temperature transducers. This choice depends on  the  row of specific  factors:  the speed of movement of the measured object relative the object, the state of the surface, the presence of related agents in near-surface layers, the presence of disturbing factors - noise, vibration, etc. The major factor seems to be the value of the heat carried out from the diagnosed object with the help of intermediate substance.
