International System of Units (SI)
1967: The name kelvin, symbol K, was adopted instead of “degree Kelvin”, symbol °K, and defined as “the fraction 1/273,16 of the thermodynamic temperature of the triple point of water”.
1954: The thermodynamic temperature scale was defined choosing the triple point of water as the fundamental fixed point, and assigning to it the temperature 273,16 degrees Kelvin, exactly.
1960: The name Système International d’Unités, with the abbreviation SI, was given to the system of units.

Scilab - GUIs
With This window we can:
- convert thermocouple emf to Temperature and vice-versa;
- plot thermocouple curves
Scilab - GUIs
Standardized thermocouples: functions and coefficients into a new Scilab library,
thermo
Calibrated TC of Lab: functions from thermo and
coefficients into a worksheet
Scilab - GUIs
With this window we can evaluate the temperature from:
- a photocurrent signal of the thermometer detector;
- responsivity spectral data
- reference signal and reference temperature etc.

● Hardware from NI● GPIB toolbox by Tibault Reveyrand
● Serial Comm. toolbox● Modbus toobox
In mind ...
● Create a unified GUI● Add a Help menu● Update code from 5.3.3 to 5.5.2 or newer● A new atoms module ● Add more languages
