Announcements/Reminders• HW 2 due Monday
– L3PP – Lab 3 preparation problem• Bottom of Lab 3 Handout• Create an Excel Spreadsheet to complete the tables,
plots and question in the Lab 3 instructions, using the sample data on the Lab 3 website.
• Bring that spreadsheet to lab next week and use it for your data.
![Page 3: ME 322: Instrumentation Lecture 6 Lab 3 Calculations](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051118/568161e3550346895dd1fcea/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
General Guidelines for HWs• Use your ME 322 ID numbers and lab day, not name or UNR student ID• Units and significant digits always! • No hand-drawn plots! Starting from HW 3, whenever you are asked to plot
your data, use computer software, i.e. Excel, MatLab, etc.– Include labels for both axes with the units. If necessary, include legends too. – Make it look good!
• Show you work! Do not skip the steps and just write your final answer. Whenever applicable, list your assumptions, write out your formulas and work through to your final answer. If you use a Table or graph on your solutions, give reference in your book, i.e from Table 6.3, z=-1.28.
• Be clear with your solutions and work neatly! If the grader needs to spend more than 3 minutes to figure out what you wrote, you may not get even partial credit.
• Hint: Do some summation calculations by hand to be sure you know how it is done

Instrument Calibration (review)• Measure instrument output (R) for a range of known
measurands (M, as measured by a reliable standard)• Perform measurements for at least one cycle of ascending
and descending measurands• Fit an algebraic equation to the R vs M data to get
instrument transfer function:– Linear: R = aM + b– Other: i.e. R = aM2 + bM + c, or …
• Find standard error of the estimate of R given M, sR,M
– This assumes the deviations are equally distributed around best fit for all values of (M)
![Page 5: ME 322: Instrumentation Lecture 6 Lab 3 Calculations](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051118/568161e3550346895dd1fcea/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
How to Use the Calibration• Invert transfer function
– If linear: M = (R-b)/a• Find standard error of the estimate of M given R
– sM,R = sR,M /a
• For a given reading – The best estimate of the measurand is
– The best statements of the confidence interval for the measured values are
• M = ± sM,R units (68%), • M = ± 2sM,R units (95%), or …

What does Calibration do?• Removes systematic bias (calibration) error• Quantifies random errors
– imprecision, non-repeatability errors– But does not remove them
• Quantifies user’s level of confidence in the instrument
![Page 7: ME 322: Instrumentation Lecture 6 Lab 3 Calculations](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051118/568161e3550346895dd1fcea/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Manufacturers often state “accuracy”
• May include both imprecision and calibration drift– Often not clearly defined
• This is one of the objectives of Lab 3
![Page 8: ME 322: Instrumentation Lecture 6 Lab 3 Calculations](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051118/568161e3550346895dd1fcea/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Lab 3 Set-up and Procedure
• At each pressure level record hS (from Standard) and IT (from DMM)
• Record data from at least two ascending and descending pressure cycles, with at least 6 measurements in each direction
![Page 9: ME 322: Instrumentation Lecture 6 Lab 3 Calculations](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051118/568161e3550346895dd1fcea/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Table 2 Calibration Data
• This table shows two cycles of ascending and descending pressure calibration data.
• The transmitter current did not return to 4.00 mA at the end of the descending cycles.

Fig. 1 Measured Transfer Function
• For the sample data– The measured transmitter current is consistently higher than that
predicted by the manufacturer-specified transfer function.
• Your data and confidence level may be different!

Fig. 2 Error in Manufacturer’s Transfer Function
• Error in the manufacturer-specified transfer function increases with pressure
• Maximum error magnitude is 0.35 mA.

Fig. 3 Deviation from Linear Fit
• SI,h characterizes the deviations over the full range of hS• Neither the ascending nor the deviations are generally positive or negative, which suggests that
hysteresis does not play a strong role in these measurements. • There are no systematic deviations form the fit correlation, indicating the instrument response is
essentially linear. • Standard errors of the estimates for the transmitter current for a given pressure head is SI,h = 0.035
mA, and Sh,I = 0.0065 in-WC. (confidence level 68%)• The manufacturer stated error is 0.0075 in-WC (what is it’s confidence level, >68%)

Confidence Level of Manufacture-Stated Uncertainty
• Number of standard deviations from the fit– 0.0075/0.0065 = 1.15
• Find the probability a measurement is within 1.15 standard deviations of the mean
• Identify: Symmetric problem• z1 = -1.15, z2 = 1.15
• Your data and confidence level may be different

Interpretation of Measurement Question
• A measurement using your transmitter reads 10.73 mA • Based on your calibration, find the confidence interval for the
actual pressure for which you have a 68% confidence level. • What confidence interval would you have gotten if you had
not calibrated the pressure gage?

Abstract• In this lab, a 3-inch-WC pressure transmitter was calibrated
using a pressure standard.– The transmitter current IT was measured for a range of pressure
heads h, as measured by a pressure standard. • The measured inverted-transfer-function was
– h = (0.1838 in-WC/mA)IT – (0.7335 in-WC),– The 68%-confidence-level confidence-interval for this function is
± 0.0064 in-WC• The manufacturer’s stated uncertainty is 0.0075 in-WC
– This is 1.15 time larger than the 68%-confidence-level interval, which corresponds to a 75%-confidence-level
