Thermocouple is a heat sensing device.
It is made up of 2 dissimilar metals twisted/joined at one end called a junction and that is made Hot and the other end or tell end is cold (may be at 0 degree C). then a voltage is developed accross the two dissimilar metal, this principle is called SEEBECK EFFECT.
The voltage developed is directly propersional to the difference in temperature.

Is a thermocouple an active or passive transducer-why?
is a thermocouple an active or passive transducer?-why?
Is thermocouple a transducer?
Yes, it's an active transducer. A thermocouple is passive not active
What is neutral temperature in thermocouple?
The maximum sensed
List of active transducer?
thermocouple,piezoelectric transducer,photoelectric transducer.
What kind of probe would you attach to a thermocouple or thermistor to measure the temperature inside an oven?
Air Probe.
Is thermocouple output linear?
The output of the thermocouple is linear.
Is thermocouple used in fridges?
Yes, thermocouple is used in fridges !
Which materials could you use to create a thermocouple?
To create a thermocouple one needs thermocouple wire, a means of spot welding the wire, and wire strippers. A thermocouple is used to measure temperature.
Is a thermocouple an active or passive transducer-why?
is a thermocouple an active or passive transducer?-why?
What is the purpose of the thermocouple?
The thermocouple keeps a gas pilot light burning.
What type of colour are use to paint thermocouple?
You should not paint a thermocouple.
What is the role of a thermocouple in a gas furnace and how does it contribute to the safe and efficient operation of the system?
A thermocouple in a gas furnace is a safety device that detects if the pilot light is on. If the pilot light goes out, the thermocouple shuts off the gas supply to prevent a dangerous gas leak. This helps ensure the furnace operates safely and efficiently by preventing the buildup of gas without ignition.
How can I test a thermocouple on a water heater to ensure it is functioning properly?
To test a thermocouple on a water heater, you can use a multimeter to measure the voltage output. Disconnect the thermocouple from the control unit and place the multimeter probes on the thermocouple terminals. A functioning thermocouple should produce a voltage reading within the expected range. If the reading is outside this range, the thermocouple may need to be replaced.
Is thermocouple a transducer?
Yes, it's an active transducer. A thermocouple is passive not active
What is the maximum power in Watts that can be attained from a thermocouple?
not much, but it will depend on the type of thermocouple
How can I determine if a thermocouple is bad?
To determine if a thermocouple is bad, you can use a multimeter to measure the voltage output when the thermocouple is heated. If the voltage reading is not within the expected range, it may indicate that the thermocouple is faulty. Additionally, visually inspecting the thermocouple for any signs of damage or wear can also help determine if it is bad.
Thermocouple instruments are also known as?
The thermocouple is a sensore used to measure temperature. The thermocouple are made with two wires of different metals. joined together at one end to from a junction the thermocouple outputs in a a Milli volts .
