  • question_answer
    The hot and cold junctions of iron- platinum and constantan-platinum thermocouples, when held at a temperature difference of \[100{}^\circ C\] generate thermo emf of 1600 \[\mu \]V and -3400 \[\mu \]V respectively. The value of thermo emf for iron-constantan thermocouple (in \[V{}^\circ {{C}^{-1}}\]is:

    A)  14                                                         

    B)  25

    C)  28                                         

    D)  50

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Thermo emf of iron-platinum thermo couple \[{{e}_{1}}=1600\mu V\] Thermo   emf   of   constant-platinum thermocouple \[{{e}_{2}}=-3400\mu V\] Thermo emfofiron-constatan thermocouple for the same range of temperature \[={{e}_{3}}\] According to law of intermediate temperatures. For the same range of temperature, \[em{{f}_{iron-cons\tan \tan }}=em{{f}_{iron-platinum}}\]                 \[+em{{p}_{pletinum-cons\tan \tan }}\] \[em{{f}_{iron-cons\tan \tan }}=em{{f}_{iron-platinum}}\] \[-em{{p}_{cons\tan \tan -platinum}}\] \[=1600\mu V-(-3400\mu V)\] \[1600\mu V+3400\mu V\] \[em{{f}_{iron-cons\tan \tan }}=5000\mu V\] \[\therefore \]Thermo emf of iron-constantan thermocouple per \[{{C}^{o}}=\frac{5000\mu V}{100{{\,}^{o}}C}\]                                 \[=50\mu {{V}^{o}}{{C}^{-1}}\]
