Steinhart -- Hart and Beta thermistor temperature model in Python and C. Implementation and utilities
Project description
Thermistor utilities
A python based library implementing models to convert thermistor values from temperature to resistance and vice versa.
Steinhart--Hart model
Implementation precision
How to use
# import the Steinhart--Hart and or the Beta converter
from thermistor_utils import SH_converter
Create a converter from A, B, and C coefficients:
A, B, C = (0.0008402250578523375, 0.00025963477647737156, 1.5674403473853433e-07, )
conv = SH_converter(A, B, C)
If they're not available the converter could compute the values from three evenly spaced readings of temperature and resistance.
Create the converter from temp/res readings:
readings = (
(0, 27445),
(25, 10000),
(50, 4160),
)
conv = SH_converter.from_points(readings)
Printing the coefficients in a form suitable for subsequent use in python and C:
print(repr(conv))
# SH_converter(0.0008402250578523375, 0.00025963477647737156, 1.5674403473853433e-07, 0, 50)
print(conv.to_cstr())
# {0.0008402250578523375, 0.00025963477647737156, 1.5674403473853433e-07, 0, 50}
# compact but less precise representation
# (inverse of coefficients and no temperature range)
print(conv.to_cstr(compact=True, with_temps=False))
# {1./1190, 1./3852, 1./6379828}
Use the reference implementation in C (example-1.c):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <thermistor_utils.h>
int main(void)
{
struct sh_s coefficients = {
0.0008402250578523375,
0.00025963477647737156,
1.5674403473853433e-07
};
// 25C to Ohm and 10k Ohm to Celsius
double R_at_25 = sh_resistance(coefficients, 25),
T_at_10000 = sh_temperature(coefficients, 10000);
printf("25 Celsius -> %.0f Ohms\n", R_at_25);
printf("10k Ohms -> %.0f Celsius\n", T_at_10000);
}
To compile and run from the examples directory:
$ mkdir -p ../bin
$ gcc -o ../bin/example-1 \
-I../src/include \
../src/sh_converter.c \
-lm \
example-1.c
$ ../bin/example-1
25 Celsius -> 10000 Ohms
10k Ohms -> 25 Celsius
Beta model
Implementation precision
How to use
# import the Steinhart--Hart and or the Beta converter
from thermistor_utils import Beta_converter
Create a converter from beta values:
beta, R0, T0 = (3380, 10000, 25)
conv = Beta_converter(beta, R0, T0)
Printing the beta values in a form suitable for subsequent use in python and C:
print(repr(conv))
# Beta_converter(3380, 10000, 25)
print(conv.to_cstr())
# {3380, 10000, 25}
Use the reference implementation in C (example-2.c):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <thermistor_utils.h>
int main(void)
{
struct beta_s bpar = {3380, 10000, 25};
// 25C to Ohm and 10k Ohm to Celsius
double R_at_25 = beta_resistance(bpar, 25),
T_at_10000 = beta_temperature(bpar, 10000);
printf("25 Celsius -> %.0f Ohms\n", R_at_25);
printf("10k Ohms -> %.0f Celsius\n", T_at_10000);
}
To compile and run from the examples directory:
$ mkdir -p ../bin
$ gcc -o ../bin/example-2 \
-I../src/include \
../src/beta_converter.c \
-lm \
example-2.c
$ ../bin/example-2
25 Celsius -> 10000 Ohms
10k Ohms -> 25 Celsius
