Surface inspection problems in thermoelectric testing

Abstract: Abstract. This paper demonstrates the outcome of experimental studies on thermoelectric characteristics of thermocouples. Measurements were carried out using different types of thermocouples; each studied alone then investigated when they are connected in parallel, in order to simulate the imperfect nature of the various multi-contact surface of the tested object. The investigated types were Chromel-Alumel and Nichrome-Constantan. The thermoelectric characteristics were measured at the temperature range 160° -… Show more

“…In order to verify the model, a set of experimental data is needed that reflects the electrical characteristics of typical thermoEMF sources and their combinations. Experimental studies were carried out on a specially made installation, which comprises a thermal chamber, in which investigated thermocouples are put, a voltmeter, a variable load, a microcontroller and a personal computer to control all the components of this installation [12,29]. The thermocouples that are chosen to emulate experimental sources of thermoEMF are of types: copper-constantan, copper-nichrome and chromel-alumel.…”

“…To measure the temperature difference at the boundaries of the thermal interface layer, it is necessary to install two temperature sensors so that one of them has thermal contact only with the body of the semiconductor element as close as possible to the thermal interface and does not have thermal contact with the heat sink, and the second has thermal contact with the heat sink and does not have thermal contact with the body of the semiconductor element. Installing temperature sensors in this way complicates the verification process and introduces an error in determining the thermal resistance, because part of the heat is dissipated in the body of the semiconductor device up to the temperature sensor [24].…”

“…One of the approaches to study this mechanism is the replication of the heterogeneous surface by different types of thermocouples connected in parallel (Fig. 2) [19,20]. To study the thermoelectric characteristics of thermocouples connected in parallel, having their own EMF, internal and contact resistance, and the total load voltage, it is first necessary to determine the electrical characteristics of the individual thermocouples.…”
