Question

A copper constantan thermocopule with 0oC reference junction temperature was found to have linear calibration between 0oC and 400oC as shown in figure.


The temperature of the hot junciton (inoC) if the indicated emf is 10 mV with cold juction temperature of 10oC is
  1. 200

Open in App
Solution

The correct option is A 200
First we find correction factor (EC) for cold junction 10oC

Ec=20 mV400oC×10oC=0.5 mV

EECTTC=20 mV400oC (From given graph)

10mV0.5mVT10=20 mV400

T10=9.5×40020

=95×2

T=10+(190)

T=200oC
