A thermocouple is a device used to measure temperature based on the principle of the Seebeck effect, which generates a voltage proportional to the temperature difference between two dissimilar electrical conductors, or metals, that form an electrical junction.
The voltage/ emf produced by the junction can be interpreted to measure temperature, making thermocouples a widely used temperature sensor in various applications.
There are several types of thermocouples, each with its unique characteristics and applications. The most common types include B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T, and C, with different base metals such as iron, copper, nickel, platinum, rhodium, and Chromel. Each type has its temperature range, resistance, and durability, making them suitable for different applications.
