Accurate Measurements of Process Gas Flow with Laminar Flow Meters

October 15, 2010
Author(s)
Thiago Cobu, Robert F. Berg, John D. Wright, Michael R. Moldover
We calibrated three models of commercially-manufactured, laminar flow meters (LFMs) with nitrogen at four pressures (100 kPa, 200 kPa, 300 kPa, and 400 kPa) over a 10:1 flow range using NIST’s primary flow standards and a physical model. Without additional

Assessing the Uncertainty Associated with Product Emission Measurements

August 17, 2008
Author(s)
Cynthia H. Reed, Steven J. Nabinger, Andrew K. Persily
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by building materials and products have been shown to significantly impact human health and comfort. As a result, the market for low emitting building materials and products is growing rapidly. However, existing

A Color Gamut Assessment Standard: An Inter-Laboratory Measurement Comparison

May 11, 2005
Author(s)
Paul A. Boynton, Libert M. John, Edward F. Kelley
In earlier papers, NIST proposed a standard illumination source and optical filter targets to with which to assess the state-of-the-art of display measurement. The Gamut Assessment Standard (GAS) was present the display metrologist with a set of

Residential Nuisance Source Characteristics for Smoke Alarm Testing

September 16, 2004
Author(s)
Thomas G. Cleary
Nuisance scenario tests were performed in the manufactured home used in the Home Smoke Alarm fire test series. The scenario selections were based on what are commonly thought to be causes of residential nuisance alarms, and were designed to mimic normal

The Validation of Fourier-Transform Microwave Spectroscopy for Trace-Gas Analysis

February 1, 2002
Author(s)
Pamela M. Chu, R D. Suenram, Angela R. Hight Walker, R S. DaBell, George C. Rhoderick, Gerald T. Fraser
There is strong interest by regulatory agencies and automobile manufacturers, motivated in large part by increasingly stringent emission standards, for measurement tools capable of quantifying various hydrocarbons, oxygenated hydrocarbons, etc., in

Tool Wear and Surface Finish in High Speed Milling Aluminum Bronze

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
Matthew A. Davies, Kate Medicus, Christopher J. Evans, Brian S. Dutterer, R S. Fielder
Aluminum bronze C95800 is used extensively for the manufacture of propellers, because of its mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. Typically these components are machined from large castings and then hand ground and polished. In this work, we
