C-type two-thermocouple sensor design between 1000 and 1700 °C.

At the present stage of transient ultra-high-temperature energy release of boron-containing warm-pressure explosives, single thermocouples are often used for multi-point measurements in the process of their temperature field changes, and the results of their temperature field reconstruction are not satisfactory due to the limited consistency of the thermocouples. Aiming at the above-mentioned problems, a C-type two-thermocouple suitable for transient temperature measurement in high-temperature environments is designed; the system characterization of the two-thermocouple is carried out by using the blind system identification method of the inter-relationships; the identification process is evaluated by a new cost function; and the optimal solution on the new cost function is realized by using the gradient descent method. The temperature reconstruction of the two-thermocouple output excited by the simulated heat source is carried out by using the auto-regressive with extra inputs model, and the feasibility of the reconstruction results is verified. In the experimental part, a thermocouple dynamic characteristic calibration system based on a high-temperature furnace is constructed and experimental validation is carried out in the high-temperature furnace to compare the effects of different exposure lengths and different wire diameters on the output of the two-thermocouple, and as a result, the outputs are corrected and analyzed. The results show that two-thermocouple methods with different combinations of wire diameters are better for temperature measurement, with a reconstructed root mean squared error of 0.0162 and a goodness of fit of 89.13%.
