Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a temperature sensing device having a plurality of thermocouple arrangements, each of the thermocouple arrangements having a forward conductor and a plurality of return conductors electrically connected with the forward conductor, the return conductors having a different conductive material than the respectively associated forward conductor, electrical junctions or groups of electrical junctions of the return conductors to the respectively associated forward conductor being arranged at different longitudinal positions of the respectively associated forward conductor, and consecutive longitudinal positions of the electrical junctions or of groups of the electrical junctions of all thermocouple arrangements in the longitudinal direction of all forward conductors alternating between different forward conductors. Further, the present disclosure relates to a method of producing a temperature sensing device.

Abstract: A thermocouple assembly for surface temperature measurement, comprising a sheathed thermocouple sensor cable, a positioning pad, receiving and/or securing a thermocouple sensor end at a desired measuring point, an insulation body, and a shielding, wherein the positioning pad is mechanically connected to the shielding. Additionally methods for the installation of a thermocouple assembly are also provided.
