An improved apparatus including a thermocouple for measuring the temperature in a gasification process is provided. The improvement includes a sapphire reinforced outer protection tube for enclosing at least a portion of the thermocouple. The sapphire reinforced outer protection tube may be integrally formed around an inner protection tube, the inner protection tube being receptive of a sapphire-sheathed thermocouple. The apparatus may be inserted directly into a gasification stream without the use of a thermowell. The sapphire reinforced outer protection tube increases the life of the thermocouples used in gasification processes.
L'invention concerne un appareil à thermocouple amélioré, qui sert à mesurer la température dans un processus de gazéification. L'amélioration porte sur un tube de protection extérieur renforcé de saphir qui renferme au moins une partie dudit thermocouple. Le tube de protection extérieur renforcé de saphir peut être formé intégralement autour d'un tube de protection intérieur, lequel reçoit un thermocouple gainé de saphir. L'appareil peut être inséré directement dans un courant de gazéification sans emploi d'une sonde thermométrique. Le tube de protection extérieur renforcé de saphir augmente la durée de vie des thermocouples utilisés dans des processus de gazéification.
