Calibration of Temperature Measurement Systems Installed in Buildings

摘要

Energy Management Control Systems (EMCS) cannot function properly or efficiently without accurate temperature measurements since temperature is one of the fundamental measurements of any EMCS. This report was written for the purpose of describing various methods of on-site calibration of temperature sensing devices used in EMCS and to review the characteristics of these devices that are directly related to calibration. The significance of recording the results of each calibration is emphasized and the possible effects of systematic errors in temperature monitoring systems is discussed.
