The thermo e.m.f E in volts of a certain thermocouple is found to vary with temperature difference θ in °C between the two junctions according to the relation
E - 30θ - θ² 15
The neutral temperature for the thermocouple will be
-
- 30° C
- 450° C
- 400 ° C
- 225° C
Correct Option: D
E = 30Ω - | θ² | |
15 |
For neutral Temperature, de/dθ = 0
0 = 30 - (2/15)θ
∴ 0 = 15 x 15 = 225° C
Hence, neutral temperature is 225°C.
