MS 131 Lecture Notes - Heat Detector, Heating Element, Thermocouple
Document Summary
2. 5 discussion and principles of operation of a thermocouple detector 4. 2. 6 discussion and principle of operation of electric heat detectors 4. 2. 7 discussion and working principles of photon detectors 4. This discussion discusses electric transformers that can convert electrical energy into heat energy and radiation energy converters. In this discussion, readers will learn about electrical transducers that can convert electricity into heat energy and radiant transducers. The heating element is one of the known transformers in the conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy and is a heating element. For this purpose, it mostly consists of wires made of nickel alloys such as the nickel-chromium metals. The loss is equal to the energy gain rate. It also depends on the material temperature and the ambient temperature. The heating element is also a flat nickel wire and can be wrapped around a mica plate so that the heat is evenly distributed around it.
