A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH TO ESTIMATING UNCERTAINTY IN PRESSURE MEASUREMENT

Anil Agarwal, Claude Jacques
Abstract:
For any measurement to be meaningful, the result of the measurement must be accompanied with a statement of its uncertainty. The evaluation of uncertainties associated with pressure measurement is sometimes complex but an important task. This paper presents a systematic approach for estimating measurement uncertainty by providing a worked example for the case of pressure measurement by a pneumatic dead-weight tester.
