    How to determine the wire gauge of thermocouple wires?

    OK my second attempt.. as for the labelling of the diagram top left is R1, Top right is RS, Bottom left is R2 & Bottom Right is RT. Rt = R0(1 + at) R0 = 100 (1 + 0.0052 x 20) = 110.4 ohms R150 = 110.4(1 + 0.0052 x 150) = 196.5 ohms Fundamental Interval = Rt - R0 = 196.5 - 110.4 = 86.1 ohms...

    How to determine the wire gauge of thermocouple wires?

    I've just noticed that I've put a \ in this formula: RT = R0 x (1 + at), sorry!

    How to determine the wire gauge of thermocouple wires?

    Homework Statement A resistance thermometer bridge circuit shown below has a designed maximum temperature of 150°C, ignoring the effects of connecting wire resistance. If the connecting loop is 200 m determine the smallest gauge (swg) of copper wire which must be used if the indicated maximum...
