Description
With a view to using tungsten-rhenium alloys junctions in nuclear reactors, we have made a systematic preliminary study of these elements. For the combinations W/W 26 per cent Re and W 5 per cent Re/W 26 per cent Re, with or without sheath, we have investigated the following properties: (i) e.m.f., (ii) reproducibility of measurements, (iii) influence of thermal shocks. After a description of the method used, results are given showing the possibilities of these alloys for accurate temperature determinations up to 2300 deg. C. (authors)

Envisageant l'emploi de couples thermoelectriques d'alliages tungstene-rhenium en pile, nous avons procede a une etude systematique prealable de ces elements. Les combinaisons W/W 26 pour cent Re et W 5 pour cent Re/W 26 pour cent Re gaines ou non, ont fait l'objet d'etalonnages destinee a preciser leurs principales caracteristiques: force electromotrice, fidelite des mesures, influence des chocs thermiques. Apres avoir fourni une description de la methode employee, on expose les resultats obtenus qui montrent l'interet de ces alliages pour obtenir d'excellentes determinations de temperature jusqu'a 2300 deg.
