The Standard Electrical Dictionary

  1. Thermophone

    An apparatus for reproducing sounds telephonically by the agency of heat; a receiving telephone actuated by heat. Thus a wire may be attached to the centre of a diaphragm and kept in tension therefrom, and the transmitting telephone current may be caused to pass through it. The wire changes in temperature and consequently in length with the pulses of current going through it and vibrates the diaphragm, reproducing the sound. It is to be distinguished from the thermo-electric telephone which involves the action of potential difference produced by thermo-electric action.
