A column load cell starts with the initial temperature set at 22 °C, utilizing horizontal cyclic convection. Heat generation is calculated based on the power dissipation from the strain gauge and PCB. The strain gauge's thickness is considered negligible, setting its surface heat generation at 2.1875 × 10^-4 W/mm², while the PCB's volumetric heat generation is 1 × 10^-3 W/mm³. The sensor's elastic body is made of stainless steel, characterized by a thermal conductivity of 20 W/(m·K), specific heat capacity of 460 J/(kg·°C), and a density of 7850 kg/m³. Steady-state thermal analyses are performed on four models of the sensor where the nickel sheet is attached in different positions at ambient temperatures of 40 °C, 20 °C, and −10 °C. Once results are acquired, they are integrated with the static module. The stress-strain distribution diagram is shown in Figure.
An analysis was performed on the sensor's strain changes at various patch locations and temperatures.

When reaction torque sensor operates, both the strain gauge and the electronics on the PCB board produce heat, leading to temperature differences inside the sensor. These differences in temperature can fluctuate depending on the surrounding conditions. Additionally, inaccuracies in measurement compensation can result when adjusting sensor readings across varying temperatures. This paper introduces an approach to reposition the temperature compensation resistors, aiming to correct the errors attributed to the temperature influence of the strain gauge sensor itself. It demonstrates the effectiveness of this method through thermal simulations in ANSYS and experimental data, supporting its ability to mitigate inaccuracies stemming from unstable temperature variations during the functioning of strain gauge sensors.

During the load cell's operation, both the strain gauge wire grid and the strain gauge generate heat. Since there is a gap between the nickel plate and the strain gauge, the strain gauge's local temperature may exceed that of the nickel plate, creating a temperature difference. Additionally, the PCB board produces heat, which partly transfers to the strain gauge and nickel sheet via the elastomer, resulting in significant disparities within the sensor’s temperature field. At a specific temperature, the gradient remains steady, allowing us to adjust it through a compensation algorithm. However, temperature fluctuations lead to changes in the gradient, which necessitate adjustments in compensation to maintain accuracy.
