Thermowell Design Accelerator™ Makes Thermowell Designs Easy
Accurate temperature measurement is essential for optimal control of processes in industries such as electrical power generation, oil and gas refining, and chemical manufacturing. Even a slight variation, over a long duration, can alter a process outcome. Thermowells...
Choosing Temperature Instrumentation Should Begin with Understanding the Process
In a Process Heating magazine article titled Questions to Ask About Temperature Measurement Applications, Emerson’s Sarah Kendrick helps engineers work through the critical temperature application design process. Imagine this: One of your process engineers comes to...
Resources for Thermowell Selection and Design
Measuring and controlling temperature can the most important parameter in many production processes. It's not only the temperature sensors that are important, but how they are protected by thermowells. Wikipedia has a good definition of what thermowells are:...

Let's conclude our Temperature Insights educational video blog post series with a look at Temperature Measurement Installation Best Practices. In this 4:42 YouTube video, Emerson's team managing the Rosemount temperature sensors and transmitters explains how to gain...
Get Your Thermowell Questions Answered
Temperature measurement is critical in many production and manufacturing processes. It's not only important to pick the right measurement technology such as thermocouples or RTDs, it's also important to have the right thermowell. If you've taken advantage of getting a...
Velocity Collars are Not the Answer to Thermowell Resonance
A few weeks ago, I highlighted the issue of resonance and thermowells in a post, New Thermowell Calculations Help Avoid Damaging Resonance. Thermowells are the circular cylinder installed like a cantilever into process piping. The temperature sensor goes into the...
