METHODS FOR HEAT TREATING THERMOCOUPLES USING OHMIC HEATING AND RELATED SYSTEMS

Abstract: a method for heat treating a thermocouple includes connecting leads from a power source to conducting wires of a thermocouple and generating a substantially constant current at a target amperage from the power source. the substantially constant current may be applied to the conducting wires via the leads to heat the conducting wires via ohmic heating to an anneal temperature. the current from the power source to the conducting wires is stopped after a heat treatment time.
