A procedure for the calibration of sensors used for the measurement of surface temperature in dimensional metrology is developed. It consists of the utilization of a climate chamber, with an aluminium block inside, to house reference and calibrating sensors. The temperature of the sensors is controlled by the climate chamber and uncertainties are reduced due to the utilization of the aluminium block. The method is demonstrated by comparing the results obtained with those of a water bath calibration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
