This paper presents the method of estimating the uncertainty of temperature measurements conducted using K-type thermocouples in the study of flow boiling heat transfer in minichannels. During heat transfer experiments. the fluid temperature at the inlet and outlet of the minichannel is measured with thermocouples connected to a DaqLab 2005 data acquisition station. The major part of the experimental setup for calibration of temperature measurement included a calibrator of thermocouples. The thermocouples were manufactured by Czaki Thermo-Product. Poland. The temperatures recorded with the thermocouples were compared statistically while measuring the temperature of demineralised water at several characteristic points at liquid phase change or using the reference temperature known from the calibrator. The experimental error of the temperature measurement method was determined according to the principles of statistical analysis. Estimates of the mean value and the experimental standard deviation of the experimental error as well as the confidence interval for a single experimental error and the measurement accuracy were presented. The uncertainty of the difference in temperature was also calculated

The monitoring of the fatigue induced by thermal transients in thick-walled structures becomes more and more currently performed, mainly on equipment the failure of which could present severe implications on the environment. The easiest way of performing this monitoring is by use of Green’s functions in a convolution integral of the measured fluid temperatures to assess the stresses at the points of interest. Numerous cases, however, exist where the fluid temperatures are not available and only an outside wall temperature measurement is feasible. This paper describes the development and the industrial application of the so-called “inverse” transfer functions to predict the evolution of the fluid temperature from measurements of the metal temperature either at the outside or in the wall of the considered equipment. Some applications are shown for the particular case of the thermal stratification in piping systems.

A new method about the air temperature reconstruction based on the block correction interpolation was put forward. Its theoretical basis is the principles of thermodynamics relations and ultrasonic temperature measurement. The frequency of ultrasonic generator is 40 KHz. Because of the one-to-one relationship between gas temperature and gas velocity, the gas temperature field can be reconstructed through the rebuilding of velocity field. As the distance between the generator and receiver is known, so the average speed on the path can be obtained by detecting the ultrasonic transit-time. After obtaining the average speed of many paths in the field, the correction of the measured data can be done by using the block correction interpolation technology. And through the mathematical analysis software, the reconstruction of the measured field was given.

Much research has been performed on steady-state conduction errors in temperature sensors due to heat transfer to or from vessel walls through which those sensors are mounted. Furthermore, another large body of research exists for temperature errors due to transient lag error due to physical sensors measuring their own temperatures which lag the true fluid temperature that they are immersed in because of convective heat transfer limitations. Not readily available in the archival literature is the reconstruction of the true fluid temperature when both conduction and transient lag errors are present simultaneously. The paper will show how such a condition can indeed be modeled utilizing the integral technique. The salient feature of the integral technique is its simplicity, and this application again validates why the integral technique is still a valuable tool — even in a time of computation heat transfer models — not only as a research tool but as an educational one as well.
