Above neutral temperature, thermo e.m.f. in a thermocouple

The temperature at which thermal electric power of a thermo couple becomes zero is called

Assertion: When temperature of cold junction of a thermocouple is lowered, the value of neutral temperature of this thermo couple is raised. Reason: When the difference of temperature of two junction is raised. More thermo emf is produced.

Assertion: Neutral temperature of a thermocuple does not depend upon temperature of cold junction. Reason: Its value is constant for the given metals of the couple

With the cold junction at 0^(@)C the neutral temperature for a thermo-couple is obtained at 270^(@)C . The cold junction temperature is now lowered to -10^(@)C Obta in the (a) neutral temperature (b) the temperature of inversion in this case.

With the cold junction at 0^(@)C the neutral temperature for a thermo-couple is obtained at 270^(@)C . The cold junction temperature is now lowered to -10^(@)C Obta in the (a) neutral temperature (b) the temperature of inversion in this case.

Is neutral temperature always the arithmetic mean of the inversion temperature and the temperature of the cold junction? Does the unit of temperature have an effect in deciding this question?

Show, with the help of a labelled graph, how thermo emf .e. developed by a thermocouple varies with theta , the temperature difference between the two junctions. On the graph, mark neutral temperature as theta_(N) and temperature of inversion as theta_(1) .

Plot a labelled graph to show variation of thermo-emf .e. versus temperature difference .theta. between the two junctions of a thermocouple. Mark .N. as neutral temperature and I as temperature of inversion. (ii) What is Peltier effect ?

One junction of a certain thermoelectric couple is at a fixed temperature r T and the other junction is at temperature T . The thermo electromotive force for this is expressed by E=K(T-T_(r ))[T_(0)-(1)/(2)(T+T_(r ))] . At temperature T=(1)/(2)T_(0) , the thermoelectric power is
