Abstract:

In modern industry the thermocouple plays an important role in temperature instrumentation. The increasing need for temperature measurements in extreme environments has produced significant advancements in thermo couple technology much of this technology has come from research in the aerospace and atomic energy areas. This survey reviews developments resulting from work performed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA and its contractors. The main thrust of the survey is to encourage non-aerospace applications of the results of aerospace research.
