Metrological characterisation of a textile temperature sensor in archaeological usage

This paper presents the study of a new generation textile temperature sensor in two different heated ovens. The first chamber was used to evaluate temperature and the second was used to evaluate both temperature and humidity. Data acquisition systems based on LabVIEW and Agilent were developed using thermocouples and Pt100 sensors. The results show many metrological characteristics that prove that the sensor is a resistance temperature detector.
