What is a Millivolt to Temperature Conversion?

A millivolt to temperature conversion is a method used to determine the temperature based on the millivolt reading from a thermocouple or other temperature sensor. Thermocouples generate a voltage that is proportional to the temperature difference between the junctions. By using a known relationship between voltage and temperature, the temperature can be calculated from the millivolt reading. This conversion is essential in various applications, including industrial processes, scientific research, and environmental monitoring, where accurate temperature measurements are crucial.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula to calculate the Temperature (T):

\[ T = (mV - 0.5) \cdot 100 = (0.75 - 0.5) \cdot 100 = 25 \]

The Temperature (T) is 25 °C.
