Find a Reliable Temperature Sensor for Cold Environments - 200K Capable!

AI Thread Summary
Temperature sensors capable of operating at 200K are challenging to find, as most thermistors and thermocouples fail around 223K. Platinum RTD sensors are suggested as a viable option for low-temperature applications. Omega and Lakeshore are recommended suppliers, with Lakeshore being noted as a leading provider of low-temperature sensors. Additionally, Scientific Instruments is mentioned as another potential source for these specialized sensors. Exploring these suppliers can help in finding suitable temperature sensors for extreme conditions.

Does anyone know where I can purchase a temperature sensor that can operate at 200K? Thermistors and thermocouples all seem to fail around 223K.

I need to calculate the amount of water condensed from a DX cooling coil per hour given the size of the expansion coil (the total condensing surface area), the incoming air temperature, the amount of air flow from the fan, the BTU capacity of the compressor and the incoming air humidity. There are lots of condenser calculators around but they all need the air flow and incoming and outgoing humidity and then give a total volume of condensed water but I need more than that. The size of the...
Thread 'Why work is PdV and not (P+dP)dV in an isothermal process?'
Let's say we have a cylinder of volume V1 with a frictionless movable piston and some gas trapped inside with pressure P1 and temperature T1. On top of the piston lay some small pebbles that add weight and essentially create the pressure P1. Also the system is inside a reservoir of water that keeps its temperature constant at T1. The system is in equilibrium at V1, P1, T1. Now let's say i put another very small pebble on top of the piston (0,00001kg) and after some seconds the system...
