The photo above shows Ralph Fiennes as Amon Goeth, shooting prisoners in the Plaszow camp in the movie Schindler's List. In the background is the quarry where Steven Spielberg built a replica of the Plaszow camp.
A thermocouple is an electrical device consisting of two dissimilar electrical conductors forming electrical junctions at differing temperatures. A thermocouple produces a temperature-dependent voltage as a result of the thermoelectric effect, and this voltage can be interpreted to measure temperature. Thermocouples are a widely used type of temperature sensor. Commercial thermocouples are inexpensive, interchangeable, are supplied with standard connectors, and can measure a wide range of temper
The thermocouple looks like a thick, solid copper wire screwed into the gas valve on the water heater. The pilot flame heats the tip of the thermocouple, causing it to generate a minute electrical current at low voltage, which provides power to an electric valve that controls the flow of gas to the main burner.
