- 3. Resistance thermometers, alsocalled resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), are sensors used to measure temperature by correlating the resistance of the RTD element with temperature. Most RTD elements consist of a length of fine coiled wire wrapped around a ceramic or glass core. The element is usually quite fragile, so it is often placed inside a sheathed probe to protect it. The RTD element is made from a pure material, typically platinum, nickel or copper. The material has a predictable change in resistance as the temperature changes and it is this predictable change that is used to determine temperature. WHAT IS RTD?????
- 4. The construction istypically such that the wire is wound on a form (in a coil) on notched mica cross frame to achieve small size, improving the thermal conductivity to decrease the response time and a high rate of heat transfer is obtained. In the industrial RTD’s, the coil is protected by a stainless steel sheath or a protective tube. So that, the physical strain is negligible as the wire expands and increase the length of wire with the temperature change. If the strain on the wire is increasing, then the tension increases. Due to that, the resistance of the wire will change which is undesirable. So, we don’t want to change the resistance of wire by any other unwanted changes except the temperature changes. CONSTRUCTION

- 6. Platinum resistance thermometers(PRTs) offer excellent accuracy over a wide temperature range (from –200 to +850 °C). Standard sensors are available from many manufacturers with various accuracy specifications and numerous packaging options to suit most applications. Unlike thermocouples, it is not necessary to use special cables to connect to the sensor. The principle of operation is to measure the resistance of a platinum element. The most common type (PT100) has a resistance of 100 ohms at 0 °C and 138.4 ohms at 100 °C. There are also PT1000 sensors that have a resistance of 1000 ohms at 0 °C. PLATINUMRTD

- 9. 2-WIRE RTD(CONFIGuRATION) The simplestresistance thermometer configuration uses two wires. It is only used when high accuracy is not required, as the resistance of the connecting wires is added to that of the sensor, leading to errors of measurement. This configuration allows use of 100 meters of cable. This applies equally to balanced bridge and fixed bridge system. For a balanced bridge the usual setting is with R2=R3 and R1 around the middle of the range of the RTD. So for example, if we are going to measure between 0 and 100 °C (32 and 212 °F), RTD resistance will range from 100 ohm to 138.4 ohm. We would choose R1=120 ohm. In that way we get a small measured voltage in the bridge.

We can just slove the equation to get expression for Rg This expression assume , when the load resistance R(load)=0,if R(load) is present in a situation then Rg becomes, So, there is an error in the RTD resistance value because of the R(load) resistance.
