A thermocouple is made up of a spherical bead bimetallic junction at the end of two very thin wires of different materials. For example, in a type-T thermocouple, a copper wire and a constantan wire, with wire diameters ranging from 0.5 mm to 0.025 mm, are fused together to make a spherical bead that is also of a similar order-of-magnitude diameter. For such a thermocouple, determine the appropriate diameter of the spherical bead junction so as to ensure a response time of less than 2 s (?t ? 2 s) in water, which is at 40°C and has a convective heat transfer coefficient of 80 h = W/m2 K. Consider the bead junction to have properties of Cu, and to be initially at 150°C. Also, for the calculated bead diameter, what would be the response time in air at 40°C and 10 h = W/m2 K?
GIVEN • Copper and constanton wire with diameter range from 0.5 mm to 0.025 mm fused together • Response time ?t ? 2 s • Water bath temperature (T?) = 40°C • Convective heat transfer coefficient ( ch ) = 80 W/(m2 K) • Initial temperature of bead junction (T0)=1500 FIND • Appropriate diameter of spherical bead junction to ensure response time of less than 2 seconds. • Response time in air at 40°C and 10 h = W/m2 K for calculated bead diameter. ASSUMPTIONS • Constant thermal conductivity • End effects are negligible PROPERTIES AND CONSTANTS we get for Copper ks =391 W/m K c = 383 J/kg K ?=8930 kg/m3
