A thermometer does nothing in a furnace control system other than indicate temperature at a thermostat. A physical thermostat on the other hand controls variances of temperature (called anticipation) using the principles of a thermometer which is expansion of a liquid in a sealed capillary/bulb. A thermistor is another device used in electronic temperature measurement at nominal to extreme temperatures. It measures the resistance of power to indicate temperature.

What is a furnace control system?

A furnace by definition provides heat. There must be something that controls that heat; that is that tells the furnace when to fire up the burners and when to shut down the burners. This function is provided by the furnace control system. Usually the control system itself is controlled by a thermostat which maintains the temperature at a preset level on the thermostat.

What does the thermometer serve as in a furnace control system?

it serves as a thermometer. IDIOT! I don't think it is right for you to put idiot. Even though yes it is a thermometer it can stand for: an effector, sensor, feedback loop, responder, or a changer. So which one is it? Which one does it stand for out of the five. No, it does not stand as a thermometer. Whoever wrote that needs to change their answer because their obviously as clueless as the people who ask this particular question.

What are the applications of an electric resistance furnace?

A Furnace heated by electric Current is known as electric Furnace. Advantage of an electric furnace is it gives Positive temperature control System through a Temperature Controller. Now a days application of an electric Furnace is very Vast, from domestic use to Industrial Applications. Industrial uses its making large quantity of steel, in quality control laboratory it's a part to Analise the quality of materials etc. Domestic use of electric furnace warm rooms, media of cooking foods for us.


What type of thermodynamic system is a thermometer?

A Thermometer is a Closed System. As from definition any system which can release and except energy but no reduction or increment of mass, is called a closed system. A thermometer can only take and release energy or heat. But no Mercury vapor comes out from it and neither can we insert any thing.
