Claim:
1. A thermocouple probe arrangement including a thermocouple comprising two wires joined at a first sensing end to define a hot thermocouple function, at least a portion of the wires being in thermal communication with a cooling arrangement, the cooling arrangement having an inlet for coolant and an outlet for coolant, and wherein the thermocouple probe arrangement includes a first inlet temperature sensor for determining temperature of the coolant entering the cooling arrangement, and a flow rate sensor for determining flow rate of the coolant passing through the cooling arrangement, and wherein the thermocouple probe arrangement includes connectors for connecting outputs from the thermocouple, the first inlet temperature sensor, and the flow rate sensor to a correction data processor whereby the correction data processor is configured to correct the temperature sensed by the thermocouple to take account of effect of the cooling arrangement.
