Yes.
No, it will just keep your furnace from turning on. At least that's the problem I'm having right now with the bad thermopile in my floor furnace.
yes 400 to 450 is what you should get
A millivolt gas valve is used in a standing pilot type of appliance. In a normal application there are actually 2 valves in one. one valve controls gas flow to the pilot and the other part of the valve controls gas flow to the burner. The pilot burns on a device or devices that produce a small amount of electricity ( millivoltage ) some valves accomplish this with a thermopile producing energy for the pilot and the burner portions of the valve. others use a thermocouple to produce energy to keep the pilot open and a thermopile to produce the energy for the burner side of the valve. In a typical gas fireplace valve the pilot runs on 30mV ( millivolts ) and the burner runs on 500 mV. it sounds like alot but it's only .5volts. This energy creates an electromagnet that pulls the valve open against a spring. That is the fail safe and how the pilot safety function works, if for any reason the energy isn't present, the spring snaps the valve shut shutting off the gas. Millivolt valves are NOT field serviceable. They should never be disassembled as they will leak. Most issues with millivolt valves are caused by a simple lack of manufacturer recommended service and maintenance.
No it is not but you can use it as a wedge but it is not appropriate use of a sword.
Yes.

Thermopiles respond to changes in temperature and create electricity from this. They are made of thermocouples connected together in a small series depending on the device the thermopile is in. They are usually attached to devices like thermometers or professional devices used to measure a person's temperature.
Yes. It senses the radiations from the source and measures the temperature being at a distance.
yes
Isotopes are used to create energy in at least two ways: # The isotopes are allowed to heat water into steam, and the steam turns a generator. # The isotopes are allowed to heat one end of a "thermopile", and the thermopile powers electronics. (This is how the deep space probes get their power.)
He discovered the conduction of heat through iron varied with the heat. He also discovered the polarization of radiat heat by transmission through tourlamine and reflection through latrer. He discovered this with the use of the thermopile.

Either nuclear energy from some on-board reactor, thermopile or solar Cells
I don't believe so. Most likely you are tripping a limit switch.
