16、ranged so that the quantities are presented on the left-hand pages and the units on the corresponding right-hand pages. All units between two full lines on the right-hand pages belong to the quantities between the corresponding full lines on the left-hand pages. Where the numbering of an item has be
17、en changed in the revision of a part of ISO 31, the number in the preceding edition is shown in parenthesis on the left-hand page under the new number for the quantity; a dash is used to indicate that the item in question did not appear in the preceding edition. 0.2 Tables of quantities The names in
18、 English and in French of the most important quantities within the field of this document are given together with their symbols and, in most cases, their definitions. These names and symbols are recommendations. The definitions are given for identification of the quantities in the International Syst
19、em of Quantities (ISQ), listed on the left hand pages of Table 1; they are not intended to be complete. The scalar, vectorial or tensorial character of quantities is pointed out, especially when this is needed for the definitions. In most cases only one name and only one symbol for the quantity are
20、given; where two or more names or two or more symbols are given for one quantity and no special distinction is made, they are on an equal footing. When two types of italic letters exist (for example as with and ; and ; a and a; g and g) only one of these is given. This does not mean that the other i
21、s not equally acceptable. It is recommended that such variants should not be given different meanings. A symbol within parenthesis implies that it is a reserve symbol, to be used when, in a particular context, the main symbol is in use with a different meaning. In this English edition the quantity n
22、ames in French are printed in an italic font, and are preceded by fr. The gender of the French name is indicated by (m) for masculine and (f) for feminine, immediately after the noun in the French name. 0.3 Tables of units 0.3.1 General The names of units for the corresponding quantities are given t
23、ogether with the international symbols and the definitions. These unit names are language-dependent, but the symbols are international and the same in all languages. For further information, see the SI Brochure (8thedition 2006) from BIPM and ISO 80000-1 (under preparation). The units are arranged i
24、n the following way: a) The coherent SI units are given first. The SI units have been adopted by the General Conference on Weights and Measures (Confrence Gnrale des Poids et Mesures, CGPM). The use of coherent SI units, and their decimal multiples and submultiples formed with the SI prefixes are re
25、commended, although the decimal multiples and submultiples are not explicitly mentioned. b) Some non-SI units are then given, being those accepted by the International Committee for Weights and Measures (Comit International des Poids et Mesures, CIPM), or by the International Organization of Legal M
26、etrology (Organisation Internationale de Mtrologie Lgale, OIML), or by ISO and IEC, for use with the SI. 4 BS EN 80000-6:2008Such units are separated from the SI units in the item by use of a broken line between the SI units and the other units. c) Non-SI units currently accepted by the CIPM for use
27、 with the SI are given in small print (smaller than the text size) in the “Conversion factors and remarks” column. d) Non-SI units that are not recommended are given only in annexes in some parts of ISO/IEC 80000. These annexes are informative, in the first place for the conversion factors, and are
28、not integral parts of the standard. These deprecated units are arranged in two groups: 1) units in the CGS system with special names; 2) units based on the foot, pound, second, and some other related units. e) Other non-SI units given for information, especially regarding the conversion factors are
29、given in another informative annex. 0.3.2 Remark on units for quantities of dimension one, or dimensionless quantities The coherent unit for any quantity of dimension one, also called a dimensionless quantity, is the number one, symbol 1. When the value of such a quantity is expressed, the unit symb
30、ol 1 is generally not written out explicitly. EXAMPLE Refractive index n = 1,53 1 = 1,53 Prefixes shall not be used to form multiples or submultiples of this unit. Instead of prefixes, powers of 10 are recommended. EXAMPLE Reynolds number Re = 1,32 103Considering that plane angle is generally expres
31、sed as the ratio of two lengths and solid angle as the ratio of two areas, in 1995 the CGPM specified that, in the SI, the radian, symbol rad, and steradian, symbol sr, are dimensionless derived units. This implies that the quantities plane angle and solid angle are considered as derived quantities
32、of dimension one. The units radian and steradian are thus equal to one; they may either be omitted, or they may be used in expressions for derived units to facilitate distinction between quantities of different kinds but having the same dimension. 0.4 Numerical statements in this standard The sign =
33、 is used to denote “is exactly equal to”, the sign is used to denote “is approximately equal to”, and the sign := is used to denote “is by definition equal to”. Numerical values of physical quantities that have been experimentally determined always have an associated measurement uncertainty. This un
34、certainty should always be specified. In this standard, the magnitude of the uncertainty is represented as in the following example. EXAMPLE l = 2,347 82(32) m In this example, l = a(b) m, the numerical value of the uncertainty b indicated in parentheses is assumed to apply to the last (and least si
35、gnificant) digits of the numerical value a of the length l. This notation is used when b represents one standard uncertainty (estimated standard deviation) in the last digits of a. The numerical example given above may be interpreted to mean that the best estimate of the numerical value of the lengt
36、h l, when l is 5 BS EN 80000-6:2008expressed in the unit metre, is 2,347 82 and that the unknown value of l is believed to lie between (2,347 82 0,000 32) m and (2,347 82 + 0,000 32) m with a probability determined by the standard uncertainty 0,000 32 m and the probability distribution of the values
37、 of l. 0.5 Special remarks The items given in ISO 80000-6 are generally in conformity with the International Electrotechnical Vocabulary (IEV), especially IEC 60050-121 and IEC 60050-131. For each quantity, the reference to IEV is given in the form: “See IEC 60050-121, item 121-xx-xxx.”. 0.5.1 Syste
38、m of quantities For electromagnetism, several different systems of quantities have been developed and used depending on the number and the choice of base quantities on which the system is based. However, in electromagnetism and electrical engineering, only the International System of Quantities, ISQ
39、, and the associated International System of Units, SI, are acknowledged and are reflected in the standards of ISO and IEC. The SI has seven base units, among them metre, symbol m, kilogram, symbol kg, second, symbol s, and ampere, symbol A. 0.5.2 Sinusoidal quantities For quantities that vary sinus
40、oidally with time, and for their complex representations, the IEC has standardized two ways to build symbols. Capital and lowercase letters are generally used for electric current (item 6-1) and for voltage (item 6-11.3), and additional marks for other quantities. These are given in IEC 60027-1. EXA
41、MPLE 1 The sinusoidal variation with time of an electric current (item 6-1) can be expressed in real representation as )(cos2 = tIi and its complex representation (termed phasor) is expressed as jeII= where i is the instantaneous value of the current, I is its root-mean-square (rms) value, (t ) is t
42、he phase, is the initial phase. 6 BS EN 80000-6:2008EXAMPLE 2 The sinusoidal variation with time of a magnetic flux (item 6-22.1) can be expressed in real representation as )()(cos2coseff = tt where is the instantaneous value of the flux, is its peak value and eff is its rms value. 7 BS EN 80000-6:2
