Abstract
A compressor discharge temperature sensing system senses compressor discharge temperature for a compressor located within a housing. A sensor mounted external to the flow path receives high pressure air discharged from the compressor. The high pressure air flows past at least one thermocouple in the housing and through a purge line. The thermocouple measures the high pressure air temperature and the high pressure air is then returned to the flow path.
