Abstract
An electromotive force–temperature reference function for thermocouples made of platinum–20%rhodium versus platinum (Pt–20%Rh/Pt) was determined for the temperature range from 0 °C to 1100 °C. Three Pt–20%Rh/Pt thermocouples were constructed at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) and were compared with standard platinum resistance thermometers, an Au/Pt thermocouple and a Pt/Pd thermocouple, which were all calibrated at fixed points of the International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90). The comparison measurements were performed in stirred liquid baths in the range from 0 °C to 545 °C, in a sodium heat pipe from 560 °C to 980 °C, and in a five-zone furnace at temperatures between 1000 °C and 1100 °C. Furthermore, the Pt–20%Rh/Pt thermocouples were calibrated at fixed points of the ITS-90. The PTB reference function based on two of the three Pt–20%Rh/Pt thermocouples has an expanded measurement uncertainty of 0.25 K in the temperature range from 0 °C to 1100 °C.
在 0 °C 至 1100 °C 的温度范围内,测定了由铂-20% 铑与铂(Pt-20%Rh/Pt)制成的热电偶的电动势-温度参考函数。在德国联邦物理技术局(PTB)制造了三个 Pt-20%Rh/Pt 热电偶,并将其与标准铂电阻温度计、金/铂热电偶和铂/钯热电偶进行了比较,这些热电偶都在 1990 年国际温标(ITS-90)的固定点上进行了校准。对比测量是在 0 °C 至 545 °C 的搅拌液浴、560 °C 至 980 °C 的钠热管以及 1000 °C 至 1100 °C 的五区炉中进行的。此外,还在 ITS-90 的固定点对 Pt-20%Rh/Pt 热电偶进行了校准。在 0 °C 至 1100 °C 的温度范围内,基于三个 Pt-20%Rh/Pt 热电偶中的两个的 PTB 参考函数的测量不确定度为 0.25 K。
期刊介绍:
Published 6 times per year, Metrologia covers the fundamentals of measurements, particularly those dealing with the seven base units of the International System of Units (metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, candela, mole) or proposals to replace them.
The journal also publishes papers that contribute to the solution of difficult measurement problems and improve the accuracy of derived units and constants that are of fundamental importance to physics.
In addition to regular papers, the journal publishes review articles, issues devoted to single topics of timely interest and occasional conference proceedings. Letters to the Editor and Short Communications (generally three pages or less) are also considered.
