<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 747328, member: 4552&quot;]Very good observation. However, a little overly explained. What your referring to is in fact not dissimilar metal corrrosion. It is an electrical reaction of two different metals or mixtures of them in contact with each other. This is the basis of many thermocouples used in industry due to the accuracy of such reactions. Even used in most power stations for the terperatures of what is happening all over the station. </p><p>A thermowell is installed in pipes, air ducts, etc and a thermohead is installed. Two wires of dissimilar metals are connected in that device and the wires run to a meter for readings of temperatures. As any temperature changes, an electrical charge is created at the dissimilar wire connections and is read at the meter. </p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
