To provide a temperature measuring device for a thermal displacement compensation device, in which the values output by temperature sensors are shared among a plurality of machine tools, and thus the total number of the temperature sensors is reduced, thereby suppressing the total cost and also reducing the failure risk of the temperature sensors installed in the machine tools. A plurality of machine tools are made to use, in order to monitor a temperature of each of one or more common positions set in advance, temperature information measured by a temperature sensor installed at any position in the common positions in each of the machine tools, as temperature information of any position in the common positions without a temperature sensor installed in another machine tool in the plurality of machine tools.

Test dummy for detecting at least one process variable in the manufacture of glassware of identical or similar design along a production line, comprising a base body which is adapted to the shape and/or dimension of the glassware in such a manner that it can pass through the production line instead of a glassware, at least one sensor system mounted on the base body for detecting the at least one process variable on the base body, and at least one transmission apparatus mounted on the base body for transmitting the at least one detected process variable to a digital receiving unit.

A method of measuring a temperature of a part during an assembly process comprises reading the temperature via a reference block that is independently exposed to a same heat source as the part to be monitored.

This temperature monitoring device (100) can be placed in a furnace together with a composite material. The temperature monitoring device (100) includes: a pair of internal components (10) that each have a temperature detection surface (11) and are layered such that the temperature detection surfaces (11, 11) face each other; a temperature detection unit (30) disposed so as to be sandwiched between the temperature detection surfaces (11, 11); at least a pair of external components (20) that are respectively disposed on reverse sides from the temperature detection surfaces (11); and an adjustment part (50) capable of adjusting the sizes of the thickness-direction gaps between the internal components (10) and external components (20).

A method including steps of (1) heating, with a heating system, an apparatus comprising an enclosure assembly and a temperature emulation assembly positioned within said enclosure assembly; (2) thermally isolating said temperature emulation assembly from said heating system with said enclosure assembly; (3) permitting conductive heat transfer to said temperature emulation assembly only through an enclosure assembly-leading end of said enclosure assembly; and (4) representing a hottest temperature and a coldest temperature of an article being emulated by said apparatus with said temperature emulation assembly.

This disclosure relates to a system and method for measuring average temperature of mixed fluid in an enclosed chamber. Measurement is based on two independent principle as measuring variation in acoustic wave velocity and variation in resistivity that works on a single setup. First principle is based on measuring acoustic wave velocity in a known medium, which is isolated from the surrounding. The system comprises a primary pipe and a secondary pipe, wherein the ends of the pipes reside inside the enclosed chamber. The primary pipe is made out of good conductor of heat and filled with air. Ends of the primary pipe is fitted with a transducers have one transmitter at one end and one receiver at another end. Average temperature of the mixed fluid is measured based on the variations in sound velocity of acoustic wave passed through the primary pipe and resistivity variations of the primary pipe.

A system and method for the treatment of invasive pests includes an irradiation device that can generate an electron beam that is applicable to a tree infected by an invasive pest, wherein the electron beam provides an in-situ treatment for the tree infected by the invasive pest by killing the invasive pest via electron beam irradiation. One or more temperature sensors can be used to track the internal temperature of a tree surrogate. A differential temperature difference tracked by temperature sensor can be used to ensure that a reduction in temperature of the tree is attributable to the electron beam rather than increase in heat.

An apparatus includes a enclosure assembly including an enclosure assembly-leading end and an opposed enclosure assembly-lagging end, and a temperature emulation assembly mounted within the enclosure assembly and including a temperature emulation assembly-leading end located proximate to the enclosure assembly-leading end and a temperature emulation assembly-lagging end spaced away from the enclosure assembly-lagging end. The enclosure assembly thermally isolates the temperature emulation assembly. The enclosure assembly permits conductive heat transfer to the temperature emulation assembly only through the enclosure assembly-leading end.

A device is provided. The device includes a body, a heat absorber, a test piece and a contact thermometer. The heat absorber is attached to the body. The test piece is attached to the body and spaced apart from the heat absorber. The test piece has an overlap region that is overlapped by the heat absorber such that the heat absorber absorbs heat radiated toward the device and a non-overlap region which does not overlap with the heat absorber and which is exposed to the heat radiated toward the device. The contact thermometer is coupled to the overlap region. The test piece has a thermal transmissivity approximately equal to that of a substrate, and the device positions the overlap region of the test piece adjacent to the substrate being radiated by the heat.
