The time constant of a thermocouple is to be found by exposing it to a step change.
Then the thermocouple and a thermometer are exposed to a ramp function and measurements from each are taken simultaneously.
The time constant and its uncertainty for the thermometer are to be found.
I think the time to get 63% of the way to the final temperature can determine the time constant for the thermocouple. But then I don't know how that can be used to find the time constant of the thermometer when they both are giving a ramp input.
