Abstract: A temperature sensing device and a temperature sensing method are provided. The temperature sensing device includes a sensor and an analog-to-digital converter. The sensor generates a first sensing result corresponding to an ambient temperature based on a first condition and generates a second sensing result corresponding to the ambient temperature based on a second condition. The second sensing result is different from the first sensing result. The analog-to-digital divides the first sensing result and the second sensing result to obtain a quotient value and generates an output digital code value corresponding to the ambient temperature according to the quotient value.

Abstract: A temperature measurement device includes a first thermocouple mounted on a tubular body that is shielded from the effects of radiation by a radiation shield, and a second, unshielded thermocouple. A difference in the measured temperatures from the first and second thermocouples is compared with calculated temperatures using an iterative process to determine a corrected temperature of the gas stream that estimates and compensates for incident radiation.

Abstract: A passive differential calorimeter, comprising an inflow control valve (2?), differential measurement means (4?) including the driving part of an input water meter (15) and the driving part of an output water meter (16), a back flow control valve (9?) and connecting pipes between them, wherein both the inflow control valve and the output flow control valve being temperature controlled valve, i.e.

Abstract: What is disclosed is an apparatus for determining the cooling characteristics of a cooling device used for transferring heat from an electronic device. The apparatus comprising a cooling device thermally coupled to a heat pipe. The heat pipe having an exposed surface for the selective application of heat thereon. A localized heat source is selectively applied to at least one region of the exposed surface. The heat source preferably capable of being varied both positionally relative to the exposed surface and in heat intensity. A heat shield is preferably positioned around the exposed surface of the heat pipe to isolate the operational cooling device from the localized heat source. A temperature detector repeatedly measures a temperature distribution across the exposed surface while the cooling device is in a heat transfer mode. The temperature distribution is then used to thermally characterize the cooling device.

Abstract: There is provided a differential scanning calorimeter in which a base line stability and a responsiveness are improved. There is made a constitution in which the stability is ensured by making a neck-like part in a heat passage from a heat reservoir 1 to a sensor plate 4 and, at the same time, a two-dimension heat flow passage to a sample holder 5a is ensured.

Abstract: There is provided a differential scanning calorimeter for exactly measuring a calorie variation of the measured sample on the basis of the temperature difference between sample container and the reference container without the influence of the heat irregularity incoming from the surroundings and the noise components.
