Answer / ashwin jain

when the RTD is loose, the RTD probe direct contact to
thermowell body so RTD giving the temp.(100 deg) but when
we tighten with thermowell there is sum gap or space
between thermowell body & probe,so temp down to 90 deg.
also check the OD of thermowell.
OD of thermowell > RTD

Answer / ashok

The Question is not clear bez always temperature needs time
to reach the actual value like 100deg. so when you take out
of it will not loose the temperature until we take the senor
out.
