A simple potentiometer circuit as shown in the fig. is used to measure the emf of a iron constantan thermocouple. A fixed voltage of 1.215 V is applied across points A and B . A current of 3 mA flows through the resistors. The range of temperature variations is 150C to 650C. Find the value of R1,R2 and RG for an ambient temperature of 20C. Data from thermocouple tables for iron-constantan with 0C reference junction temperature is: emf for 20C=1.022mV emf for 150C=14.682mVemf for 650C=53.512mV
