Resistance measurement The common values of resistancefor a platinum RTD range from 10 ohms for the bird-cage model to several thousand ohms for the ï¬ lm RTD. The single most common value is 100 ohms at 0Â°C. The DIN 43760 standard temperature coefï¬ cient of platinum wire is Î± = .00385.he four-wire resistance measurement may not be required as it is with RTDâs. For example, a common thermistor value is 5000 Ï at 25Â°C. With a typical TC of 4%/Â°C, a measurement lead resistance of 10 Ï produces only .05Â°C error.
Cirrocumulus clouds are usually seen in the winter and indicate fair, but cold weather. In tropical regions, they may indicate an approaching hurricane. Alto Clouds Altostratus clouds are gray or blue-gray mid level clouds composed of ice crystals and water droplets.
While this article isn't specifically about forecasting, it's helpful to know that the seasoned outdoors person can tell what each type of cloud means for the weather. Different types of clouds form along warm fronts and cold fronts, and a field forecaster should be able to tell what weather is coming by reading the cloud shapes and height.
