ther·mo·cou·ple (thûr

-k

A thermoelectric device used to measure temperatures accurately, especially one consisting of two dissimilar metals joined so that a potential difference generated between the points of contact is a measure of the temperature difference between the points.

thermocouple

[thur′məkup′əl]

Etymology: Gk, thermē + Fr, couple, pair

a temperature-measuring device that relies on the production of a temperature-dependent voltage at the junction of two dissimilar metals.

thermocouple [ther´mo-kup″'l]

a pair of dissimilar electric conductors so joined that with the application of heat an electromotive force is established; used for measuring small temperature differences.

thermocouple,

n the joining of two dissimilar metals. The unequal thermal expansion of the two metals is used to indicate temperature changes.

thermocouple

a pair of dissimilar electric conductors so joined that with the application of heat an electromotive force is established; used for measuring small temperature differences.
