Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) – Pedagogy Zone
When a metal wire is heated the resistance increases. So, a temperature can be measured using the resistance of a wire. The RTD incorporates pure metals or certain alloys that increase in resistance as temperature increases and, conversely, decrease in resistance as temp decreases. RTDs act somewhat like an electrical transducer, converting changes in temperature
