NORTHERN BORDER UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING MECHANICAL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT Thermo- Lab Temperature Measurement devices Temperature Measurement with PC Marcet Boiler Two Stage Computerized Trainer Cycle of Compressor Air Used for (Test and/or Experiment Name) Is used to measure temperature Temperature Measurements • Liquid bulb thermometers • Gas bulb thermometers • bimetal indicators • RTD: resistance temperature detectors (Platinum wire) • thermocouples • thermistors • IC sensors • Optical sensors . Pyrometers . Infrared detectors/cameras . liquid crystals How to Select Thermocouple? • Junction protection: sheath or not. • Tip size: big or small • Thermocouple type (T, J, K, E, S, R): –Temperature range (cryogenic or high temperature) –Corrosion (noble metal is more inert to chemical attack) • Termination: wire or connector • Cost Used for (Test and/or Experiment Name) It is used to measure and calibrate the thermocouples , Platinum resistance thermometer PT 100, and NTC thermometer Used for (Test and/or Experiment Name) Boiler has been developed for investigating the relationship between the pressure and temperature of saturated steam, in equilibrium with water, at all pressures between atmospheric and 17 bar (250 lb/in2). Used for (Test and/or Experiment Name) Investigate the effect of delivery pressure on the performance of air compressor one and two stage , also calculate power output and efficiency.
