A thermistor is placed in a 100 °C environment and its resistance measured as 20,000 Ω. The material constant, β, for this thermistor is 3,650 °C. Find: If the thermistor is then used to measure a particular temperature, and its resistance is measured as 500 Ω, determine the thermistor temperature.

the thermistor temperature =

Explanation:

Given that:

A thermistor is placed in a 100 °C environment and its resistance measured as 20,000 Ω.

i.e Temperature

Resistance of the thermistor 20,000 ohms

Material constant = 3650

Resistance of the thermistor = 500 ohms

Using the equation :

Taking log of both sides

Replacing our values into the above equation :

Thus, the thermistor temperature =
