The Standard Electrical Dictionary

  1. Thermometer, Electric

    (a) A thermometer whose indications are due to the change of resistance in conductors with change of temperature. Two exactly similar resistance coils maybe electrically balanced against each other. On exposing one to a source of heat, its resistance will change and it will disturb the balance. The balance is restored by heating the other coil in a vessel of water when the temperature of the water gives the temperature of both coils. The coils are enclosed in water-tight metallic cases. Synonym--Electric Resistance Thermometer. (b) A differential thermometer may be made by connecting with a pair of conductors, two thermo-electric couples in opposition to each other, and including a galvanometer in series. On heating the junction of one couple more than that of the other a current at once goes through the galvanometer. (c) (See Thermometer, Kinnersley's.) Synonym--Thermo-electrometer.
