Abstract
A temperature sensor for accurately measuring a temperature, such as that of a fluid where the temperature is changing, can include a housing with an exterior surface extending between a first end and a second end. The temperature sensor housing can include a set of exterior grooves, which provides for coupling a set of temperature sensor probes along the exterior of the housing with a probe extending at the first end. Additionally, a set of recesses can be formed in the first end for positioning the probes within the recesses. Furthermore, the interior of the housing can be hollow, with a second type of probe extending through the interior between the first end and the second end.
Claims20
A temperature sensor comprising:
- a housing with an exterior surface including a first end and a second end;
- an interior passage extending through the housing between the first end and the second end, and defining an interior surface for the housing;
- a set of grooves provided in the exterior surface extending between the first end and the second end;
- a set of exterior temperature probes secured to the housing in the set of grooves;
- and
- an interior temperature probe extending through the interior passage.
A temperature sensor comprising:
- a housing including an exterior surface extending between a first end and a second end with a set of grooves provided in the exterior surface, and the housing having an interior passage extending through the housing between the first end and the second end;
- a set of thermocouple temperature sensors mounted to the housing in the set of grooves;
- and
- a resistance thermometer mounted to the housing and extending through the interior passage.
A temperature sensor comprising:
- a substrate having a first surface separated from a second surface by a set of sidewalls;
- a set of thermocouples provided on the first surface of the substrate;
- and
- a resistance thermometer provided on the second surface of the substrate.
