Description:
Two-element gauge used alternately in two different bridge circuits to measure both temperature and strain. Three-lead strain-and-temperature gauge developed for use at temperatures up to 750 degree F (390 degree C) on fiber-reinforced carbon/carbon composite material having coefficient of thermal expansion of 0.8 ppm/degree F. Unlike most temperature-compensated gauges, gauge gives accurate results even during rapid heating and cooling cycles. Similar gauges produced for materials with different coefficients of thermal expansion.
