Abstract

A Co-C eutectic cell for thermocouple calibration was manufactured and tested to investigate its phase transition characteristics using Type B thermocouples. It was observed that the freezing plateaus were flatter than those of melting, but the melting points were closer to the true transition temperature than the freezing points. The expanded uncertainty of melting temperature was calculated not to exceed $0.2^{\circ}C$ (k = 2). Based on the observed results, the melting process is recommended for the calibration of thermocouples.
