Thermocouple has been developed in order to measure the tremperature by making use of Seebeck effect. 2 types of metal are connected, one to become as a hot junction tip and the other as a reference junction tip (output terminal side). If the temperature at these 2 tips are made different, a thermo-electromotive force having a constant relationship with that temperature difference is generated. Here, if you keep the reference junction tip at a constant temperature, you will kknow the temperature at hot junction tip.
Thermocouple is a sensor in which this principle has been incorporated. It is the best sensor among all contact type temperature sensors and can measurein the range of highest temperature.
