thermocouple junction マイ単語帳に追加

熱電対

a kind of thermometer consisting of two wires of different metals that are joined at both ends; one junction is at the temperature to be measured and the other is held at a fixed lower temperature; the current generated in the circuit is proportional to the temperature difference.

異なる金属でできた2本の針金が両端で接続されている温度計の一種。一方の接続部は測定される温度下におかれ、他方はそれより低い一定の温度に保たれる。回路で発生する電流は、温度差に比例する。
