Book Description
Over one in five thermometers currently in use are out of calibration. This self-teaching text seeks to redress this situation by providing practical guidance on temperature measurement and calibration. Focusing upon recognised measurement procedures and international standards, the authors detail the operating and measurement principles for the four most common thermometers: platinum resistance, liquid-in-glass, thermocouples, and radiation thermometers. Features include the latest temperature information including ITS-90 reference tables for thermocouples and platinum resistance thermometers; detailed coverage of traceability; how to make traceable measurements and how to design, carry-out and report calibrations; identification of the main contributing uncertainties for a range of thermometers; extensive advice on accuracy, with sections devoted to the recognition and treatment of errors; technical information to complement the managerial guidelines of the ISO 9000 series QA systems. The systematic approach will assist those seeking accreditation along the lines of ISO Guide 25; and illustrative examples, detailed references and a full bibliography.

Book Description
The monograph describes the methods and equipment employed at the National Bureau of Standards for calibrating standard platinum resistance thermometers (SPRT) on the International Practical Temperature Scale (IPTS-68).The official text of the scale is clarified and characteristics of the scale are described.Several designs of SPRT's are shown and discussed in the light of the requirements and recommendations on the text of the IPTS-68.Possible sources of error such as those due to the internal and external self-heating effects and the immersion characteristics of SPRT's are described in detail.Precautions and limitations for the mechanical and thermal treatment and for the shipment of SPRT's are indicated, and a guide is given for those desiring the thermometer calibration services of NBS.(Modified author abstract).

Book Description
Volume 2 of the Handbook of Temperature Measurement, prepared by the CSIRO National Measurement Laboratory, Australia, discusses the operation, calibration and usage of resistance and liquid-in-glass thermometers. Both standard-platinum-resistance thermometers and industrial-resistance thermometers are examined, and details on a variety of resistance-measuring techniques are given. Also included is a final version of the official text of the International Temperature Scale 1990 (ITS-90). The authors of this volume are John J. Connolly and E. Corina Horrigan.
