Thermo-resistive sensors are widely used in metrology and instrumentation systems. In the case of radiometers used in measurement of solar radiation, the classical architecture uses the principle of electrical equivalence in which the electrical sensor is kept at a constant temperature. The objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of environmental temperature variation according to the dynamic output voltage of this type of radiometer. In addition, it was evaluated the output dynamic voltage for a constant temperature difference between the sensor and the environment. The sensors used were NTC and PTC, with analog voltage and pulse width outputs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
