Uncertainty analysis is critical in temperature calibration to quantify measurement reliability. Sources of uncertainty include:

1. Instrument Accuracy: The precision of the calibrator and reference thermometer.

2. Environmental Factors: Temperature fluctuations and humidity.

3. Human Error: Mistakes in reading or recording data.

By identifying and controlling these factors, you can minimize uncertainty and improve calibration accuracy.

Key takeaways:

• Uncertainty analysis ensures reliable calibration results.

• Control environmental factors and human error to reduce uncertainty.
