ASTM WK98249
Adding 2 new terms related to thermal analysis given below: Resistance Temperature Detector, RTD, n— is a general term for a temperature sensor that measures the change in electrical resistance as temperature changes. Platinum Resistance Thermometer, PRT, n— is a specific RTD temperature sensor that measures the change in electrical resistance of platinum as temperature changes over a wide temperature range (typically up to 750 °C). Discussion— E1137 and E2593 note the PRT temperature suitability from -200 to 650 °C.
