The Thomson effect is explained in alater paragraph. Such a thermoelectric diagram is shown inCurve Sheet No, 1, where it might be observed thatwithin the limits of the diagram, the variations ofthe thermoelectric powers of the various metals withtemperature changes, are represented by straightlines. The electromotive force of a couple madeup of any two metals is expressed by the areaincluded between the lines of the two metals, andthe ordinates of the temperatures of the junctions.
