Volume 3 of the Handbook of Temperature Measurement, prepared by the CSIRO National Measurement Laboratory, Australia, covers the principles behind the behaviour and misbehaviour of thermocouples and gives detailed information on the properties of common thermocouple materials. It also discusses the use of thermocouples and their calibration. Other topics include the calculation of uncertainties and the problems of multi-site measurements (e.g. furnace testing). The text is entirely authored by Robin E. Bentley.
Volume 2 of the Handbook of Temperature Measurement, prepared by the CSIRO National Measurement Laboratory, Australia, discusses the operation, calibration and usage of resistance and liquid-in-glass thermometers. Both standard-platinum-resistance thermometers and industrial-resistance thermometers are examined, and details on a variety of resistance-measuring techniques are given. Also included is a final version of the official text of the International Temperature Scale 1990 (ITS-90). The authors of this volume are John J. Connolly and E. Corina Horrigan.
Volume 1 of the Handbook of Temperature Measurement, prepared by the CSIRO National Measurement Laboratory, Australia, details the principles and techniques involved in the measurement of humidity, in cryogenic and radiation thermometry and a variety of unconventional methods of temperature measurement. Other topics considered are thermal conductivity and the traceability of measurement. Authors in this volume include Mark J. Ballico, Edwin C. Morris, Gary Rosengarten, Anna Schneider, Glenda Sandars, Laurie M. Besley, Jeffrey Tapping, and Anthony J. Farmer.
Things will never be the same again... Ben is driving on the motorway, on his usual commute to the school where he works.
