Abstract:In this paper, the heating during reflow soldering for different thermocouple constructions is modelled in order to reveal possible deviations originated from thermocouple constructions. K-type (Chromel-Alumel) thermocouples are investigated from the aspect of various physical constructions. The physical dimensions were measured with optical microscopy for several types of thermocouples. Based on those results, CAD geometry was realized for finite element analysis. The temperature dependence of the welded hot-… Show more
