Callendar–Van Dusen Equation
The Callendar–Van Dusen equation is an equation that describes the relationship between resistance (R) and temperature (T) of platinum resistance thermometers (RTD). As commonly used for commercial applications of RTD thermometers, the relationship between resistance and temperature is given by the following equations. The relationship above 0 °C (up to the melting point of aluminum ~ 660 °C) is a simplification of the equation that holds over a broader range down to -200 °C. The longer form was published in 1925 (see below) by M.S. Van Dusen and is given as:"Callendar-Van Dusen equations for the calibration of platinum resistance thermometers", WIKA data sheet IN 00.29 ∙ 08/2014, https://www.wikapolska.pl/upload/DS_IN0029_en_co_59667.pdf :R(T) = R(0) 1 + A*T + B*T^2 + (T - 100)C*T^3 While the simpler form was published earlier by Callendar, it is generally valid only over the range between 0 °C to 661 °C and is given as: :R(T) = R(0) ( 1 + A*T ...
