Appendix 5 Temperature Conversion (
Δ
T) Function
A6
Utilizing the temperature-dependent nature of resistance, the temperature conversion func-
tion converts resistance measurements for display as temperatures. This method of tem-
perature conversion is described here.
According to IEC 60034, the resistance law may be applied to determine temperature
increase as follows:
Example
With initial resistance
R
1
of 200 m
Ω
at initial temperature
t
1
of 20°C, and final resistance
R
2
of 210 m
Ω
at current ambient temperature
t
a
of 25°C, the temperature increase value is
calculated as follows:
Therefore, the current temperature
t
R
of the resistive body can be calculated as follows:
For a measurement target that is not copper or aluminum with a temperature coefficient of
α
t 0
, the constant k can be calculated using the formula shown for the temperature correc-
tion function and the above formula, as follows:
For example, the temperature coefficient of copper at 20°C is 3930 ppm/°C, so the constant
k in this case is as follows, which shows almost the same value as the constant for copper
235 defined by the IEC standard.
