Abstract
A sensor element, comprising first and second measuring paths, wherein the first measuring path extends via a first segment of a first material and the second measuring path at least partially extends via this first segment of the first material, wherein the second measuring path extends additionally via a second segment, which is composed of a second material different from the first material.
Claims22
1-21. (canceled)
A sensor element, comprising:
- a first measuring path;
- and
- a second measuring path, wherein:
- said first measuring path extends via a first segment of a first material, and said second measuring path at least partially extends via said first segment of the first material;
- and
- said second measuring path extends additionally via a second segment, which is composed of a second material different from said first material.
3 more elements
A thermometer, comprising:
- a sensor element, comprising:
- a first measuring path;
- and a second measuring path, wherein:
- said first measuring path extends via a first segment of a first material, and said second measuring path at least partially extends via said first segment of the first material;
- and said second measuring path extends additionally via a second segment, which is composed of a second material different from said first material.
2 more elements
A method for determining a temperature, comprising:
- a first measuring path, which extends via a first segment, composed of a first material;
- a second measuring path, which extends at least partially via the first segment, said second measuring path extends additionally via a second segment, composed of a second material, which differs from the first material;
- tapping a first measurement signal via said first measuring path;
- and
- tapping a second measurement signal via said second measuring path.
2 more elements
The use of a method for determining a temperature comprising:
- providing a first measuring path, which extends via a first segment, composed of a first material;
- providing a second measuring path which extends at least partially via the first segment, said second measuring path extends additionally via a second segment, composed of a second material, which differs from the first material;
- tapping a first measurement signal via said first measuring path;
- and
- tapping a second measurement signal via said second measurement path, the use comprising:
- validation, calibration, adjusting and/or certification of a thermometer.
3 more elements
A sensor element, including:
- a measuring path, which is composed of at least two segments bordering one another, which segments are preferably of different materials, wherein:
- at least one of said segments has a phase transformation temperature in a range relevant for validation, adjusting, calibrating and/or certification of the sensor element.
