What is the equation relating temperature and resistance for an RTD calibrator?

Solution

Equation relating temperature and resistance for an RTD calibrator:

$$R _ {T} = R _ {r e f} (1 + \alpha (T - T _ {r e f}))$$

Where:

$R_{T}$ - RTD resistance at current temperature T in ohms,

$R_{ref}$ - the RTD resistance at a reference temperature Tref in ohms,

$\alpha$ - temperature coefficient of resistance
