Abstract

We have developed an electronic thermometer auto-verification system to improve efficiency of calibration. The uncertainty study of measured results is an important step to evaluate the performance of system. This paper gives the sources of uncertainty and their impact on the overall measurement. The standard uncertainty, composite uncertainty and extended uncertainty are calculated and discussed in detail. After the uncertainty is analyzed, it shows that the electronic thermometer auto-verification system is reliable.
