The thermo emf of a thermocouple is given by `E=2164t-6.2t^2` Determine the neutral temperature and inversion temperature.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

At neutral temperature `(dE)/(dtheta)=0rArr alpha+beta(2theta_(n))=0=-(alpha)/(2beta)`
At inversion temperature `E=0rArr alpha(theta_(1)-theta_(0))+beta(theta_(1)^(2)-theta_(0)^(2))=0 rArr theta_(1)=-theta_(0)-(alpha)/(beta)`
