compatibility with chromel and alumel
Compatibility between chromel (nickel-chromium alloy) and alumel (nickel-aluminum alloy) is essential for accurate temperature measurements in thermocouples. When these two materials are joined, they create a stable thermoelectric voltage that correlates with temperature. They are designed to have compatible thermal and electrical properties, reducing measurement errors and ensuring reliable performance. Their compatibility minimizes issues like corrosion or material degradation at the junction, making them ideal for precise and durable temperature sensing applications.
