Abstract: A heat flux temperature sensor probe includes a first mineral-insulated cable portion and a second mineral-insulated cable portion. The first mineral-insulated cable portion has a first metallic sheath, a first plurality of thermocouple conductors extending therein, and an inorganic insulative material insulating the first plurality of thermocouple conductors from one another and from the first metallic sheath. The second mineral-insulated cable portion has a second metallic sheath, a second plurality of thermocouple conductors extending therein, and an inorganic insulative material insulating the second plurality of thermocouple conductors from one another and from the second metallic sheath. A first thermocouple is formed between at least one of the first plurality of thermocouple conductors and one of the second plurality of thermocouple conductors proximate a first end of the second mineral-insulated cable portion. A second thermocouple is formed between at least two of the second plurality of thermocouple conductors proximate a second end of the second mineral-insulated cable.

Abstract: A process fluid temperature transmitter includes a plurality of terminals, an excitation source, a measurement device, and a controller. The plurality of terminals is couplable to an RTD. The excitation source is operably coupled to the plurality of terminals and is configured to apply an excitation signal to the RTD. The measurement device is coupled to the plurality of terminals and is configured to measure a response of the RTD to the applied excitation signal. The controller is coupled to the excitation source and the measurement device. The controller is configured to perform an RTD resistance measurement by causing the excitation source to apply the excitation signal to the RTD and to cause the measurement device to measure the response of the RTD while the excitation signal is applied to the RTD. The controller is also configured to perform an RTD diagnostic by causing the excitation source to change application of the excitation signal and causing the measurement device to measure an RTD response to the changed excitation signal.
