The EMPIR Project for development of traceable measurement capabilities for monitoring of thermocouple performance

Original language description

The EMPIR Project MetForTC[1] builds research capacity and improves the metrological infrastructures in emerging European National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) and Designated Institutes (DIs), through collaboration and dissemination of knowledge between partners, reducing the scientific disparities between European countries participating in European research. Since the project offers a platform for the co-operation of developed and emerging NMIs/Dis, the less experienced NMIs/Dis will acquire the required knowledge and expertise in temperature metrology with the objective to enable them to take more fully part in future calls or research programmes. The scientific objective of the project is to develop novel methods and techniques that will significantly improve knowledge on drift and homogeneity as well as confidence in the verification of thermocouple performance for primary and secondary calibration laboratories. The novel concept of dual-type temperature sensors, that enables in-situ monitoring of thermocouple drift under conditions of typical use has been developed. In order to solve the problem of the limited accuracy of thermocouples, A set of miniature fixed point cells in the range from 232 °C (Sn FP) to 1084 °C (Cu FP) of the ITS-90 has been developed for the verification of thermocouples performance. Additionally to this, two novel devices have been designed and constructed for the assessment of thermocouple inhomogeneity and drift. This paper deals with these achievements. This work is performed within the framework of the European Metrology Programme for Innovation and Research (EMPIR) project 18RPT03 MetForTC. This project (18RPT03 MetForTC) has received funding from the EMPIR programme co-financed by the Participating States and from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
