    Inversion temperature for a thermocouple is the temperature at which thermo emf:

    A)  increases                           

    B)  remains unchanged

    C)  changes erratically         

    D)  reverses in sign

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Inversion temperature is the temperature to which one junction of a thermocouple must be raised in order to make the thermoelectric electromotive force in the circuit equal to zero, when the other junction of the thermocouple is held at a constant low temperature. Hence, inversion temperature is the temperature at which the Joule-Thomson effect of a gas change sign.
