Thermocouple Temperatur sensor Introduction to Thermocouples The thermocouple is one of the simplest of all sensors. It consists of two wires of dissimilar metals joined near the measurement point. The output is a small voltage measured between the two wires. While appealingly simple in concept, the theory behind the thermocouple is subtle, the basics of which need to be understood for the most effective use of the sensor. Thermocouple theory Athermocouple circuit has at least two junctions: the measurement junction and areference junction. Typically, the reference junction is created where the two wires connect to the measuring device. This second junction it is really two junctions: one for each of the two wires, but because they are assumed to be at the same temperature (isothermal) they are considered as one (thermal) junction. It is the point where the metals change -from the thermocouple metals to what ever metals are used in the measuring device - typically copper. The output voltage is related to the temperature difference between the measurement and the reference junctions. This is phenomena is known as the Seebeck effect.
