Relaxation Effects in Small Critical Nozzles

January 1, 2006
Author(s)
Aaron N. Johnson, C L. Merkle, Michael R. Moldover, John D. Wright
We computed the flow of four gases (He, N 2, CO 2, and SF 6) through a critical nozzle by augmenting traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with a rate equation that accounts for τ relax, a species-dependent relaxation time that characterizes the

Uncertainty Budgets for Comparison Calibrations of Thermocouples

August 7, 2005
Author(s)
Dean C. Ripple, K Garrity
By means of concrete examples, we discuss the determination of an uncertainty budget for calibration of thermocouples by comparison techniques. In the first example, the calibration of a type T thermocouple (copper versus copper-nickel alloy) in a stirred

Gas Flowmeter Calibrations with the 34 L and 677 L PVTt Standards

June 23, 2004
Author(s)
John D. Wright, Aaron N. Johnson, Michael R. Moldover, Gina M. Kline
This document provides a description of the 34 L and 677 L pressure, volume, temperature, and time (PVTt) primary gas flow standards operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Fluid Flow Group. These facilities are used to

CCT Key Comparison No 1 (CCT-K1): Realisations of the ITS-90, 0.65 K to 24.5561 K, Using Rhodium-Iron Resistance Thermometers

R L. Rusby, Christopher W. Meyer, Weston L. Tew, D I. Head, K D. Hill, O Tamura, P A. de Groot, B Fellmuth, A Storm, A Peruzzi, J Engert, D N. Astrov, Y Dedikov, G A. Kytin
At its meeting in 1996 the CCT initiated five Key Comparisons to test the equivalence of realisations of the ITS-90 between National Measurement Institutes. CCT-K1 covers the temperature range from 0.65 K to 24.5561 K, in which the ITS-90 is defined by

The NIST Low Temperature ITS-90 Realization and Calibration Facilities

October 1, 2002
Author(s)
Christopher W. Meyer, Weston L. Tew
Two facilities have been constructed at NIST for realizing and maintaining the ITS-90 below 84 K. The first facility is an integrated low temperature realization system that realizes the ITS-90 below 84 K in its entirety and which we refer to as the Low

Dose Meter Calibration System for 193 nm

May 1, 2002
Author(s)
Holger Laabs, Richard D. Jones, Marla L. Dowell
We have established a measurement system for the direct calibration of energy density (dose) meters. It consists of beam-shaping objects, a beamsplitter, calibrated apertures, a beam profile monitor, an energy monitor, and a transfer standard. The 193 nm
