(1) Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a thermocouple with improved heat resistance. (2) Prior Art There are various types of thermocouples that measure temperature by joining dissimilar metals, but it is desired to improve the heat resistance characteristics of thermocouples and protection tubes. In particular, it has been difficult to use metal protective tubes made of stainless steel (for example, SUS310S), Inconel, etc. for long periods of time due to deterioration due to oxidation in high-temperature atmospheres of 1100° C. or higher. (3) Purpose of the Invention In view of the above points, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a thermocouple with improved heat resistance in an oxidizing atmosphere. (4) Embodiments of the invention K thermocouples (chromel/alumel), which mainly contain Ni, have been known for a long time, but in recent years, as an improvement on this, thermocouples containing Cr, Si, and Mg have been developed to improve heat resistance. nicrosil-nisil
Thermocouple was developed. Its composition is shown in the table below.

[Table] The present invention uses this Nicrosil or Nisil as a protective tube for a thermocouple. FIG. 1 is a configuration explanatory diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a protection tube made of Nicrosil or Nisil, and 2 is a thermocouple installed in the protection tube 1. The protection tube 1 is filled with an insulating agent 3, and the protection tube 1 is processed to reduce its diameter. It may also have a sheath structure. By using Nicrosil or Nisil as the protective tube 1 in this way, the heat resistance characteristics in an oxidizing atmosphere can be greatly improved. In other words, Nicrosil contains a lot of Cf and Si,
An oxide film is formed by these, covering the surface,
Prevents internal oxidation. In addition, Nisil contains Si and Mg, which similarly prevents internal oxidation, and has strong mechanical strength, and the strength increases the more it is formed into a sheath structure. When heated in air at 1100℃ for more than 3000 hours, the thickness of the oxide film on chromel and alumel is approximately
0.3mm compared to about 0.3mm for Nicrosil and Nisil
At 0.15mm, it is half that, so there is little internal oxidation and high heat resistance at high temperatures.
(TEMPERATURE 1982.1129 page) In particular, when Nicrosil/Nisil is used as a thermocouple, it is made of the same material as the protective tube, so when it has a sheath structure, there is no difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion, and there is little chance of wire breakage. FIG. 2 shows another embodiment, in which a single wire 5 is fixed to the tip of the protective tube 4, and the protective tube 4 and the wire 5 form a Nicrosil/Nisil thermocouple to achieve miniaturization. Nicrosil or Nisil is used for the protection tube 4 to improve heat resistance. (5) Summary of the Invention As described above, the present invention is a thermocouple that uses Nicrosil or Nisil as a thermocouple protection tube. (6) Effects of the invention The heat resistance can be greatly improved in an oxidizing atmosphere, and especially when applied to thermocouples using Nicrosil/Nisil as the thermocouple wire, the lifespan can be significantly extended. In addition, Nisil has better workability and has higher mechanical strength when used as a protective tube. Furthermore, when Nicrosil is used as a protective tube, adding Mg will improve the heat resistance in an oxidizing atmosphere. In addition, conventionally, when a protective tube made of stainless steel or the like is used for a Nicrosil/Nisil thermocouple, the coefficient of thermal expansion of the two is different, so the wires are likely to break, especially when a sheath structure is used. There is no such thing.
