Special Notice ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OF is seeking Precision Enhancement for Thermocouples. Thermocouples are widely used for temperature measurement in various industries but suffer from accuracy drift over time, especially under high temperatures or radiation. The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has developed a groundbreaking method to extend the lifespan and accuracy of thermocouples by introducing a precise method of short-range ordering (SRO) on thermocouple wires through ohmic heating. This technology improves the accuracy and lifespan of thermocouples, ensuring high precision in temperature measurement over an extended period. It also reduces the need for frequent replacements, offers a faster calibration process, and can be retroactively applied to existing thermocouples in the field. This innovation has applications in manufacturing, aerospace, energy production, scientific research, healthcare, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. The technology has completed testing and demonstration and is currently at TRL 8. INL offers licensing opportunities for businesses interested in this technology.
