Thermopile

Thermopile: -Thermopile is a device used to measure high temperature of furnaces. It works on the principle that if a large number of thermocouples are connected in series, the thermoemf gets multi...

Peltier's effect and Thomson's effect

Peltier’s effect: -The phenomenon of absorption of heat at one junction and the emission of heat at other junction of a thermocouple when the current is passed through it is called Peltier’s effect...

Thermoelectric Series

Thermoelectric series (Seeback series): -Seeback arranged various metals one after another in a series called as thermoelectric series or Seeback series according as the following:Sb, Fe, Zn, Ag, A...

Verification of thermoemf with temperature of hot junction

Let us suppose two junctions of a thermocouple are kept in a melting ice (0o C) so they become a junction and θc = 0o C, where θc is temperature of cold junction. Now, one junction is heated so it ...
