There are few material properties of technological or engineering importance which do not depend on temperature to a greater or lesser extent. The course will be suitable for technicians and technical managers closely concerned with temperature measurement and calibration, and will broadly follow the pattern established in previous courses. The lectures will cover the necessary background to the subject and full course notes will be provided. However the emphasis will be on practical aspects of temperature measurement, calibration and traceability, with most of the time being spent in laboratories. These will be supplemented by lectures in calibration techniques, uncertainties, traceability and accreditation.
All participants receive a certificate of attendance.
