What If the Calculated Uncertainty of a Calibrated Instrument is Lower than the Standard Instrument Uncertainty?

• Abstract:

  In the uncertainty of measurement evaluation it is essential a solid grasp of the physical and mathematical theory underlying the measurement model to make a sensible analysis of the experimental data. There may occur particular situations, which lead to results in apparent contradiction to our usual understanding of error analysis. This paper presents a detailed case of such situations arising in a flow meter calibration model.
