What are the common methods for temperature measurement in catalytic processes?
Several methods are employed for temperature measurement in catalytic processes, including:
Thermocouples: Widely used due to their reliability, wide temperature range, and relatively low cost. Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs): Known for their accuracy and stability, particularly useful for precise temperature measurements. Infrared Thermometers: Non-contact devices that measure temperature through thermal radiation, useful in situations where direct contact is impractical. Thermistors: Temperature-sensitive resistors that are highly accurate over a limited range, often used in specific applications requiring precise control.
