Zusammenfassung: | A temperature sensing device for measuring the temperature of a body under test is provided. The temperature sensing device includes a probe in contact with the body under test. The device prevents heat transfer to or from the body under test by delivering heat energy to or from the probe using a thermal energy supply. The thermal energy supply can include a heating/cooling source. The temperature sensing device also includes a heat flux sensor. A temperature difference between the probe and the heating/cooling source drives a heat flux through the heat flux sensor. A method for determining the temperature of a body under test is also provided. |
