Mathematical modeling of contact thermocouple

The contact thermocouples introduce method errors into the thermal test results. The influence of the parameters, like the density of the incident thermal flux, the inaccuracy of the thermocouple position in the investigated construction element groove, and thermal characteristics of the groove materials, on the method error is given. The obtained results allow the increase of the precision of temperature measurement at the construction unit thermal tests. The text was submitted by the authors in English.
