21、 chambers. It has been written for technicians, engineers and managers in environmental testing, and for anyone who needs to understand the results of environmental tests. The performance of climatic test chambers is a key concern in environmental test engineer-ing. To comply with any test specifica
22、tion, the performance of the chamber needs to be characterized to decide whether the generated conditions fall within the specified limits. This characterization can be a difficult task, and the analysis of uncertainties in chamber performance is often surrounded by confusion. This publication is in
23、tended to ease that process. In what follows, the concept of uncertainty of measurement is introduced first and then the significance of tolerance discussed. Aspects of humidity and temperature measurement are considered, followed by methods for determining and combining uncertainties. The cases of
24、both calibrating an empty chamber and of measuring conditions in a loaded chamber are considered. Finally, detailed guidance and worked examples are given for analysing results to give estimates of uncertainty in the measured performance.

25、ing documentation and guidance Calculation of uncertainty of conditions in climatic test chambers 1 Scope This part of IEC 60068 demonstrates how to estimate the uncertainty of steady-state temperature and humidity conditions in temperature and humidity chambers. Since this is inextricably linked to
26、 the methods of measurement, these are also described. This standard is equally applicable to all environmental enclosures, including rooms or laboratories. The methods used apply both to temperature chambers and combined temperature and humidity chambers. This standard is meant to help everyone usi
27、ng climatic test chambers. Those already familiar with uncertainty of measurement will find it useful for guidance on typical sources of uncertainty and how they should be quantified and combined. It is also intended to assist the first-time or occasional user who has little or no knowledge of the s
28、ubject. To discuss uncertainty, it is important first to understand what is being measured or characterized. The calibration or characterization of the performance of a chamber is concerned with the humidity and temperature of the air in the chamber, as experienced by the item under test, at a given
29、 set point. This should not be confused with characterizing or calibrating the chamber sensor, which is a separate matter. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
