Abstract
1. Single thermo-junction of silver plated-constantan of extremely low heat capacity and heat conductivity has been constructed, which is capable of measuring ‘real’ skin temperature.
2. The chief advantages are: the exact measurement of skin temperature and the quick response of the system-one measurement can be done within several seconds.
3. The variability of skin temperature within a relatively small area, the fluctuation at a given point, and others have definitely been proved.
