  2. Caliper log - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caliper_log

    A caliper log is a well logging tool that provides a continuous measurement of the size and shape of a borehole along its depth [1] and is commonly used in hydrocarbon exploration. The measurements that are recorded can be an important indicator of wash-outs, cave ins or shale swelling in the borehole, which can affect the results of other well ...

  4. Continuous emissions monitoring system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_emissions...

    A small sample of flue gas is extracted, by means of a pump, into the CEM system via a sample probe. Facilities that combust fossil fuels often use a dilution-extractive probe to dilute the sample with clean, dry air to a ratio typically between 50:1 to 200:1, but usually 100:1. Dilution is used because pure flue gas can be hot, wet and, with ...

    Some include other sensors such as relative humidity, wind, light, etc. Others may record input from GPS devices. Depending on the use, governing quality management systems sometimes require calibration to national standards and compliance with formal verification and validation protocols [1]

  6. Coordinate-measuring machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate-measuring_machine

    A coordinate-measuring machine (CMM) is a device that measures the geometry of physical objects by sensing discrete points on the surface of the object with a probe. Various types of probes are used in CMMs, the most common being mechanical and laser sensors, though optical and white light sensors do exist.

  7. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    A common fixed-point calibration method for industrial-grade probes is the ice bath. The equipment is inexpensive, easy to use, and can accommodate several sensors at once. The ice point is designated as a secondary standard because its accuracy is ±0.005 °C (±0.009 °F), compared to ±0.001 °C (±0.0018 °F) for primary fixed points.

  8. Contact resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_resistance

    That means that the contact resistance of the probes and their leads is inseparable from the resistance of the contact area to be measured, with which they are in series. In a four-terminal measurement, the current used to make the measurement is injected using a second, separate pair of leads, so the contact resistance of the measurement ...

  9. Calibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration

    The formal definition of calibration by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) is the following: "Operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or ...
