ENVIRONMENTAL AGENCY OF THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA HUMIDITY • Approximate Uncertainties
ENVIRONMENTAL AGENCY OF THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA HUMIDITY • Recommendations • The target uncertainty within a calibration laboratory = 2 % RH (0.3 oC dew point) • Labs should have a humidity generator or chamber: within the range 5 % RH at 15 oC to 90 % at 40 oC. • The streams or parcels should be stable to within ± 0.2% RH per minute • If the source of humidity is not a first principles device, then measurement of the humidity should be with a dew point hygrometer with an 95 % uncertainty of 0.2oC or better • Calibration of field humidity probes should be done with a view to maintaining a low overall uncertainty. The whole of measurement cycle, including inspection frequency, must be considered and appropriate levels of calibration uncertainty applied
ENVIRONMENTAL AGENCY OF THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA CONCLUSION • Some possibilities in terms of calibration. • This first review is not exhaustive • Every other remaining devices, standard, generator not presented here are still acceptable • Metrology is the science of measurement • Expression of the uncertainty
