Designed to increase the efficiency of solar panels by orienting them to always be perpendicular to the sun's rays, Full's device is driven by simple bi-metallic strips that expand during the day and contract as they cool at night. As a result, it costs much less than comparable, motor-driven tracking systems and can be built using simple components available in developing countries.
The bulb thermometers are good to correctly measure the temperature, but are more difficult to use when the goal is to control it. The bimetallic thermometer with range due to be made of metal, is good for controlling things.
Drives are used in many applications, from the mundane to the latest technologies such as robotics, artificial muscles and micromechanical s
Bimetallic Thermometer. Construction The bimetallic thermometer consists of a bimetallic strip by bonding together two thin strips of two different metals. The differential change in expansion of the
