In order to enhance the availability of facilities in the field of contact thermometry in European emerging National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) and Designated Institutes (DIs), where access to types of facilities is currently limited an EMPIR Research Potential Project named “Traceable Measurement Capabilities for Monitoring Thermocouple Performance” (MetForTC) has been launched. Overall ten partners has been involved in the project, five of them participating from the emerging countries. This project will develop skills and tools for less experienced NMIs/DIs in order to acquire the required knowledge and expertise in temperature metrology. The MetForTC Project has been addressing the accurate low uncertainty temperature measurements by thermocouple which is of crucial importance for ensuring better manage of the metrological features of the thermal instrumentation used for realizing of temperature measurements as well as to construct a comprehensive approach for the uncertainty budget assessment. Special emphases has been given on novel practical methods and technical capabilities for checking the thermocouple’s drift performance in-situ and easy-to-use thermocouple with integrated miniature cells required to determine the inhomogeneity of thermocouples for primary and secondary calibration laboratory.
