Research and Analysis of Rapidly Changing Gas Flow Temperatures Measurement Methods
The temperature of a transducer sensitive element, as a result of its heat capacity, will always lag behind the temperature of the gas flow if this temperature changes. When measuring the flow temperature that varies in time, the transducer doesn't follow the changes in temperature immediately because its sensitive element temperature changes after some time. The distortions of the transducer readings are caused by the thermal inertia due to non-stationary heat processes in the transducers, as well as between transducer and the environment.
