Conclusions

The resistivity characteristic of platinum thermometers of different origins (1.39178≤W100°C ≤1.39251) was studied in the range of 10.8–273.16°K and it was established that Nernst's reduction formula holds in the range of 273-50°K with an error of 0.01° and does not hold at temperatures lower than 50°.

The applicability of Matthiessen's rulemade it possible to suggest a simple method for calibrating and computing temperature, which extends the range of platinum thermometers [1, 2] down to the nitrogen boiling point with an error not larger than the one guaranteed by the ITS calibration method.

The inapplicability of Matthiessen's rule at temperatures below 50°K makes it necessary to adopt a critical approach to various reduction methods [3–8].
