Each of the thermocouple types has a pair of dissimilar wires joined at each end. While people commonly refer to this end as a measuring junction, it does not measure anything in reality. The purpose of the measuring junction, therefore, is to make sure that no electric potential difference is felt between the wires at a point and that the two dissimilar wires are in place.
Primarily, the work of the measuring junction is aiding in deciding the specific starting region that can help with the creation of a thermoelectric voltage. The problem, however, is that people have different lies about how the instrument operates. Some think that the measuring junction is the power source, which does the production of small voltage. However, this is a false concept.
It is important to note that the primary thermoelectric effect felt in these instruments is extended and continuous. There is a distribution of thermoelectric effect along the conductors of each instrument. What actually drive the process in the most effective way are the gradient and or the differences in temperature through which each conductor pass.
The key thing is that the electromotive forces or the voltage of these instruments comes from the measuring junction rather that being developed by the junction itself. It is important to note that, beyond the starting point, each of the instruments must go through the process of electric insulation from each other. To realize an effective and useful output signal, the instruments must remain insulated under all the conditions in which they operate.
It is ideal to note that a great way of visualizing any of these instruments would be to consider a hypothetical and idealized application with at least three temperature zones. One zone is a region from which experts are taking time to measure the temperature and it is essentially a hot region. The second part or the temperature region is a referenced junction and instrument connectors.
Now, you are required to assume that the reference junction is the cooler point and it should be uniform with an ambient temperature. The last temperature region would be a zone with temperature assumed to vary in a straight form manner with distance. This temperature should decrease smoothly from the hotter to the cooler parts of the temperature.
There is no any potential difference between the wires within the connections at the measuring junction. It is important to note that you will never realize any electromotive difference near this junction since there is no thermal gradient to generate one. There is no change in electromotive force occurring within the cool temperature zone.
All the thermoelectric operations of the thermocouple types thus take action within the region where there is a constant decrease in temperature. The reason why there is dissimilarity in wiring of the device is that every conductor has different chemicals within the wire. The difference does not have any effect on the system in general. Because of the differences, each element will respond in a different way during operation.
