UVicRocketry / PDP-Monitoring-System

The Propulsion Development Platform (PDP) Monitoring System is a web-based application that allows users to monitor the status of the engine controls and instrumentation. The PDP is a testbed for the development of propulsion systems, and the monitoring system is used to control valve actuation, monitor sensor readings, and record data.

Seperate file for thermocouple functions #35

I polished off @BecauseWhyNote's code and added some comments for which units of measure were being used and where. I tested briefly using a heat gun. The thermocouple I used for testing (run tank) reads high at room temp (usually around 300K but should be more like 293K) but reacts to the heat gun as expected. The LJ internal temp sensor reads 293K. Not sure if this is a logic error, or the coeff's are off or maybe the thermocouple itself is damaged.

Would be good to do some more testing again and try and figure out why there is a 7K discrepancy. It's functional enough for basic monitoring right now though.
