As we will discuss in this chapter, a measurement always consists of two parts a number and a unit. Both parts are necessary to make the measurement meaningful. For example, suppose a friend tells you that she saw a bug 5 long. This statement is meaningless as it stands. Five what If it s 5 millimeters, the bug is quite small. If it s 5 centimeters, the bug is quite large. If it s 5 meters, run for cover  

The point is that for a measurement to be meaningful, it must consist of both a number and a unit that tells us the scale being used. 

In this chapter we will consider the characteristics of measurements and the calculations that involve measurements. 

To show how very large or very small numbers can be expressed as the product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10.

Organic-Cooled Heavy - Water - Moderated U-233-Fueled Lattice Experiments. G. A. 

In a new test run on a uniform lattice with the new U-233 cross sections, METHUSELAH gave a k ff of 1.020 for a case in which the geometrical budding was assumed to be equal to the material budding that had been determined by an exponential experiment. No simple and Justifiable change could be made in the METHUSELAH library to improve the results. Consequently, it is expected that discrepancies of the order of several percent in keff can be expected for the cluster lattices.

This procedure can be easily carried out for a set of reservoirs or separate reservoir blocks. It is especially practical if stacked reservoirs with common contacts are to be evaluated. In cases where parameters vary across the field we could divide the area into sub blocks of equal values which we measure and calculate separately. 

Another reason for a deviation between measured and calculated data is the phase shift along the extension of the crack in z-direction. We will discuss this problem in more detail in the following parts.

Several of the reactor physics parameters are both measurable and calculable from more fundamental properties such as the energy-dependent neutron cross sections and atom number densities. An extensive database. Evaluated Nuclear Data Files (ENDF), has been maintained over several decades. There is an interplay between theory and experiment to guide design of a reactor, as in other engineering systems. 

Color Difference Evaluation. Shade evaluation is comparable in importance to relative strength evaluation for dyes. This is of interest to both dye manufacturer and dye user for purposes of quaUty control. Objective evaluation of color differences is desirable because of the well-known variabihty of observers. A considerable number of color difference formulas that intend to transform the visually nonuniform International Commission on Illumination (CIE) tristimulus color space into a visually uniform space have been proposed over the years. Although many of them have proven to be of considerable practical value (Hunter Lab formula, Friele-MacAdam-Chickering (FMC) formula, Adams-Nickerson formula, etc), none has been found to be satisfactorily accurate for small color difference evaluation. Correlation coefficients for the correlation between average visually determined color difference values and those based on measurement and calculation with a formula are typically of a magnitude of approximately 0.7 or below. In the interest of uniformity of international usage, the CIE has proposed two color difference formulas (CIELAB and CIELUV) one of which (CIELAB) is particularly suitable for appHcation on textiles (see Color). 

Feedfoi ward control is usually combined with feedback control to eliminate any offset resulting from inaccurate measurements and calculations and unmeasured load components. The feedback controller can either bias or multiply the feedfoi ward calculation.

This result was checked by simulation of both CSTR measurements and calculations of tubular reactor incipient runaways. It should be noted that the predicted AT at inflection from CSTR experiments agrees well with measures in tubular simulation. At hotspot the AT to the AT at inflection is between 1.4 and 1.8. Using a multiplier of 1.4 as recommended by Nelson (1974) is safe.

Conduct a lab test to measure the bulk densities of several filter aids. If you don t have the chemicals, then describe how you would do the tests and what specific measurements and calculations are needed. 

We see that the agreement between measured and calculated temperatures is fairly good. Only in the right corner near the heating panel is there a big difference between the measured and calculated temperature. However, the measured results cannot be reliable here either, because it is not possible that the radiant temperature is 80 just near a surface ol 467 C.

Containment efficiencies are often called indices, which are measured and calculated in many different ways. One definition is shown in Fig. 10.7. They are different from the two preceding measures in that they are exclusively used... 

Fig. 2.19. A measured and calculated velocity versus time measurement is shown for an aluminum plate that has experienced spall failure. After the release of velocity the second and third increases in velocity represent wave reverberations within the spalled plate (after Davison and Graham [79D01]).

The value of Kip is the same as that listed in Table 11.4. Many of the solubility products listed in tables were determined from emf measurements and calculations like this one. 

Beside laminar flow created by e.g. a rotating disc electrode mrbulent flow provides a means of artificially enhanced transport. A consistent mathematical description and analytical treatment of this mode of transportation is not possible. Various approximations have been proposed and tested for correctness [84Barl], an experimental setup has been described [78Ber, 83Her, 831wa]. From comparisons of measured and calculated current density vs. electrode potential relationships exchange current densities are available. (Data obtained with this method are labelled TPF.)... 

One goal of tropospheric [HO ] or [H02 ] measurements is the generation of data for comparison with model calculations-to test or validate the models. Due to its high reactivity, HO comes into rapid photochemical equilibrium with its surroundings. Thus a test of a photochemical model, which compares measured and calculated HO concentrations, is mainly a test of the chemical mechanism that the model contains, and is relatively independent of...
