Calculate Temperature Change (ΔT)





Formula

The formula to calculate the Temperature Change (ΔT) is:

\[ \Delta T = \frac{R(T2)}{R(T1)} - 1 \div a \]

Where:

Definition

Example

Let's say the resistance at T1 (R(T1)) is 1000 Ω, the resistance at T2 (R(T2)) is 1200 Ω, and the temperature coefficient (a) is 0.004. Using the formula:

\[ \Delta T = \frac{1200}{1000} - 1 \div 0.004 = 50 \text{ °C} \]

So, the temperature change is 50 °C.
