In this experiment, we will define and get familiar with some important terms in the metrology and
statistical area. We will focus mostly on the calibration term.
In this experiment, we tried to get familiar with some devices like DC and AC power supplies,
Digital and analog multimeters, and positive and negative pressure gauges. This experiment showed
us that there is a difference between device-to-device accuracies. and our objective was to reduce the
errors that produces in the readings.
We used the accurate devices like digital multimeter to calibrate a less accurate device like the
analog multimeter in two different ways, once using the DC power supply, and once by using the
AC power supply.
We also calibrate the negative pressure gauges using the U manometer, and the positive pressure
gauge using the dead weight calibrator.
From the data we got from the two devices (the accurate and less accurate devices), we plot a figure
that shows the relation between the true value and sample value “calibration curve”, and we could
find an equation for the less accurate device to reduce the errors as possible
A solution for hysteresis has been studied, by taking the average between the upward and downward
readings and taking the average of it

Chapter 1: Introduction
With the advancement and complexity of mechanical and electrical applications, it has
become imperative to find high accurate measuring methods to keep pace with the development
and reduce the errors produced, so to achieve that, the calibration term must be studied.
There are two main types of errors that can be produced while using instrumentations:
1- Systematic error: is the error produced from the instrumentation itself "Systematic and
regular errors”, is the determination of accuracy.
2- Random error: errors from users during recording the data "Random and irregular errors”,
is the determination of precision.
Calibration: process of correction and comparison a data between two devices that one of
them is more accurate or between a device and standard reading to confine the error and
increase the accuracy. There are some factors affect the calibration such as using a wrong
calibrator values, errors in sample preparing techniques and the ambient temperature effects.
Knowing that the zero shift is a calibration for just the first reading and not the others, so it is
a part of the calibration.
The definition of calibration that established by International Bureau of Weights and
Measures "BIPM" is "operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a
relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement
standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties (of the
calibrated instrument or secondary stand) and, in a second step, uses this information to
establish a relation for obtaining a measurement result from an indication.".
Calibration curve is the relation between the indicated (True) value and sample value, the
relation usually is a linear equation, so the data I get from the device I want to calibrate must
be substituted in that equation to get the true value or the more accurate value.
Figure 1.1: Calibration curve
5
The precision is defined as the closeness of the data from each other, and the accuracy is
closeness of the data from the true value. the instrumentation that has low accuracy and high
precision should be calibrated.
Hysteresis: Is the difference in data when it has taken upward "increasing" form the data
taken downward "decreasing", the result is two curves and the first reading of the downward
curve share the final reading of the upward curve, and the area between these two curves
represents the energy losses. and to get rid of hysteresis we must take the average of the data.
Percent error tells how big the errors of recorded data
Percent error =
|𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒𝑑−𝑅𝑒𝑎𝑙|
𝑅𝑒𝑎𝑙
∗ 100%
Range: The region between the limits within which an instrument is designed to operate for
measuring or indicating a physical quantity (expressed by stating lower-upper values).
Scale: is any series of items that are arranged progressively according to value or magnitude
into which an item can be placed according to its qualification.
Negative pressure (Vacuum pressure): vacuum is absence of air or gases, or the condition
when air is removed from a system to create pressure below atmospheric. Taking standard
atmospheric pressure as reference, a pressure above it is referred as “pressure” while that
measured downwards below atmospheric is called vacuum, usually measured as negative
pressure.
Positive pressure: is a pressure within a system that is greater than the environment that
surrounds that system. Consequently, if there is any leak from the positively pressured system
it will egress into the surrounding environment.

the calibration curve, and equation, that could be used in the pressure gauge after the
calibration process

Chapter4: Discussions
1. From Table 1.3 and Table 2.3, we can see that the percent error is not predictable, which
means a lot of iterations and readings should be done to calibrate a device.
2. From the calibration curve equation, we can find the relation that we can apply to the
readings we get from a less accurate device, and substitute that reading in the equation to
get the true value.
For example, in DC scale, if the value measure by the analog meter is 4 volts, then we should
substitute the 4 volts instead of x in the calibration curve equation.
y = 0.982x – 0.015 = 0.982(4)-0.015 = 3.913 volt
3.We found the hysteresis curves for the negative and positive gauges, but not for the AC and
DC scale calibration, and that because the error in electrical circuits is very small compared
with the pressures.
4.From Table 1.3 and Table 2.3 the AC scale average percent error is greater than the average
percent error in the DC scale.
5. From figure 3.3 and figure 5.3 we can see that the closed area in the hysteresis curve for the
negative gauge pressure is larger than the closed area in the positive gauge pressure, which
means there is energy losses in the negative pressure bigger than that in the positive.
6.From the data in Table7.3, there is no accuracy between the actual (real) data and the
sample data, but the data there with high accuracy that is why we should do a calibration for
the instrument.
7. From figure 3.3 and figure 4.3, we can observe that when we take the average of upward
and downward readings and then compare it with actual values, we could find a calibration
equation could be applied to the less accurate instrument.
22
Chapter5: Conclusion
1. We conclude from this experiment that we can correct a device by using another device
with more accurate readings or by a standard reading.
2. Calibration should be done to the system that has high precision and low accurate readings.
3. To solve hysteresis we should take the average value of the upward and downward
readings and then compare it with the actual value.
4. Calibration function is to reduce the systematic errors, but the random errors can not be
predictable so other solutions should be applied.
5. To know the difference between a negative or positive gauge, we can see that cursor in the
positive gauge rotates in clockwise direction, but the negative gauge pressure cursor rotates in
counterclockwise direction
6. The closed area in the hysteresis curve represents the energy losses in the device
7. It is not necessary to make the hysteresis curves for the electrical quantities, since the
upward and downward readings are so close to each other and can be negligible.

Chapter6: Questions
Question 1: What is the definition of calibration according to the International Bureau
of Weights and Measures “BIPM”?
Answer: The definition of calibration that established by International Bureau of Weights and
Measures "BIPM" is "operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a
relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by
measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement
uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or secondary stand) and, in a second step, uses this
information to establish a relation for obtaining a measurement result from an indication.".
Question 2: What is the difference between negative and positive pressure?
Answer: Negative pressure (Vacuum pressure): vacuum is absence of air or gases, or the
condition when air is removed from a system to create pressure below atmospheric. Taking
standard atmospheric pressure as reference, a pressure above it is referred as “pressure” while
that measured downwards below atmospheric is called vacuum, usually measured as negative
pressure.
Positive pressure: is a pressure within a system that is greater than the environment that
surrounds that system. Consequently, if there is any leak from the positively pressured system
it will egress into the surrounding environment.
Question 3: What is the difference between rms voltage and average voltage?
Answer: The term "RMS" stands for "Root-Mean-Squared", also called the effective or
heating value of alternating current, is equivalent to a DC voltage that would provide the
same amount of heat generation in a resistor as the AC voltage would if applied to that same
resistor. RMS is not an "Average" voltage, and its mathematical relationship to peak voltage
varies depending on the type of waveform. The RMS value is the square root of the mean
(average) value of the squared function of the instantaneous values.
The average voltage is the level of a waveform defined by the condition that the area enclosed
by the curve above this level is exactly equal to the area enclosed by the curve below this
level, and it is the average voltage (or current) of a periodic waveform whether it is a sine
wave, square wave or triangular waveform is defined as: “the quotient of the area under the
waveform with respect to time”. In other words, the averaging of all the instantaneous values
along time axis with time being one full period.

Question 4: Define Scale and Range.
Answer: Range: The region between the limits within which an instrument is designed to
operate for measuring or indicating a physical quantity (expressed by stating lower-upper
values).
Scale: is any series of items that are arranged progressively according to value or magnitude

Experiment #1 in Instrumentation And Dynamic Systems Lab : Calibration

  • 1. 1 FACULTY OF ENGINEERING MECHANICAL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT Instrumentation and Dynamic Systems ME 472 [Report #1] [Calibration] ‫قاسم‬ ‫سعيد‬ ‫نشأت‬ ‫سيد‬ُ‫أ‬ Name 121248 ID # 2 Sec # Eng. Mohammad Rawashdeh T.A. 04/03/2021 Date
  • 2. 2 A B S T R A C T In this experiment, we will define and get familiar with some important terms in the metrology and statistical area. We will focus mostly on the calibration term. In this experiment, we tried to get familiar with some devices like DC and AC power supplies, Digital and analog multimeters, and positive and negative pressure gauges. This experiment showed us that there is a difference between device-to-device accuracies. and our objective was to reduce the errors that produces in the readings. We used the accurate devices like digital multimeter to calibrate a less accurate device like the analog multimeter in two different ways, once using the DC power supply, and once by using the AC power supply. We also calibrate the negative pressure gauges using the U manometer, and the positive pressure gauge using the dead weight calibrator. From the data we got from the two devices (the accurate and less accurate devices), we plot a figure that shows the relation between the true value and sample value “calibration curve”, and we could find an equation for the less accurate device to reduce the errors as possible A solution for hysteresis has been studied, by taking the average between the upward and downward readings and taking the average of it

  • 4. 4 Chapter 1: Introduction With the advancement and complexity of mechanical and electrical applications, it has become imperative to find high accurate measuring methods to keep pace with the development and reduce the errors produced, so to achieve that, the calibration term must be studied. There are two main types of errors that can be produced while using instrumentations: 1- Systematic error: is the error produced from the instrumentation itself "Systematic and regular errors”, is the determination of accuracy. 2- Random error: errors from users during recording the data "Random and irregular errors”, is the determination of precision. Calibration: process of correction and comparison a data between two devices that one of them is more accurate or between a device and standard reading to confine the error and increase the accuracy. There are some factors affect the calibration such as using a wrong calibrator values, errors in sample preparing techniques and the ambient temperature effects. Knowing that the zero shift is a calibration for just the first reading and not the others, so it is a part of the calibration. The definition of calibration that established by International Bureau of Weights and Measures "BIPM" is "operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or secondary stand) and, in a second step, uses this information to establish a relation for obtaining a measurement result from an indication.". Calibration curve is the relation between the indicated (True) value and sample value, the relation usually is a linear equation, so the data I get from the device I want to calibrate must be substituted in that equation to get the true value or the more accurate value. Figure 1.1: Calibration curve
  • 5. 5 The precision is defined as the closeness of the data from each other, and the accuracy is closeness of the data from the true value. the instrumentation that has low accuracy and high precision should be calibrated. Hysteresis: Is the difference in data when it has taken upward "increasing" form the data taken downward "decreasing", the result is two curves and the first reading of the downward curve share the final reading of the upward curve, and the area between these two curves represents the energy losses. and to get rid of hysteresis we must take the average of the data. Percent error tells how big the errors of recorded data Percent error = |𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒𝑑−𝑅𝑒𝑎𝑙| 𝑅𝑒𝑎𝑙 ∗ 100% Range: The region between the limits within which an instrument is designed to operate for measuring or indicating a physical quantity (expressed by stating lower-upper values). Scale: is any series of items that are arranged progressively according to value or magnitude into which an item can be placed according to its qualification. Negative pressure (Vacuum pressure): vacuum is absence of air or gases, or the condition when air is removed from a system to create pressure below atmospheric. Taking standard atmospheric pressure as reference, a pressure above it is referred as “pressure” while that measured downwards below atmospheric is called vacuum, usually measured as negative pressure. Positive pressure: is a pressure within a system that is greater than the environment that surrounds that system. Consequently, if there is any leak from the positively pressured system it will egress into the surrounding environment. Figure 2.1: The difference between accuracy and precision

  • 21. 21 Chapter4: Discussions 1. From Table 1.3 and Table 2.3, we can see that the percent error is not predictable, which means a lot of iterations and readings should be done to calibrate a device. 2. From the calibration curve equation, we can find the relation that we can apply to the readings we get from a less accurate device, and substitute that reading in the equation to get the true value. For example, in DC scale, if the value measure by the analog meter is 4 volts, then we should substitute the 4 volts instead of x in the calibration curve equation. y = 0.982x – 0.015 = 0.982(4)-0.015 = 3.913 volt 3.We found the hysteresis curves for the negative and positive gauges, but not for the AC and DC scale calibration, and that because the error in electrical circuits is very small compared with the pressures. 4.From Table 1.3 and Table 2.3 the AC scale average percent error is greater than the average percent error in the DC scale. 5. From figure 3.3 and figure 5.3 we can see that the closed area in the hysteresis curve for the negative gauge pressure is larger than the closed area in the positive gauge pressure, which means there is energy losses in the negative pressure bigger than that in the positive. 6.From the data in Table7.3, there is no accuracy between the actual (real) data and the sample data, but the data there with high accuracy that is why we should do a calibration for the instrument. 7. From figure 3.3 and figure 4.3, we can observe that when we take the average of upward and downward readings and then compare it with actual values, we could find a calibration equation could be applied to the less accurate instrument.
  • 22. 22 Chapter5: Conclusion 1. We conclude from this experiment that we can correct a device by using another device with more accurate readings or by a standard reading. 2. Calibration should be done to the system that has high precision and low accurate readings. 3. To solve hysteresis we should take the average value of the upward and downward readings and then compare it with the actual value. 4. Calibration function is to reduce the systematic errors, but the random errors can not be predictable so other solutions should be applied. 5. To know the difference between a negative or positive gauge, we can see that cursor in the positive gauge rotates in clockwise direction, but the negative gauge pressure cursor rotates in counterclockwise direction 6. The closed area in the hysteresis curve represents the energy losses in the device 7. It is not necessary to make the hysteresis curves for the electrical quantities, since the upward and downward readings are so close to each other and can be negligible.
  • 23. 23 Chapter6: Questions Question 1: What is the definition of calibration according to the International Bureau of Weights and Measures “BIPM”? Answer: The definition of calibration that established by International Bureau of Weights and Measures "BIPM" is "operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or secondary stand) and, in a second step, uses this information to establish a relation for obtaining a measurement result from an indication.". Question 2: What is the difference between negative and positive pressure? Answer: Negative pressure (Vacuum pressure): vacuum is absence of air or gases, or the condition when air is removed from a system to create pressure below atmospheric. Taking standard atmospheric pressure as reference, a pressure above it is referred as “pressure” while that measured downwards below atmospheric is called vacuum, usually measured as negative pressure. Positive pressure: is a pressure within a system that is greater than the environment that surrounds that system. Consequently, if there is any leak from the positively pressured system it will egress into the surrounding environment. Question 3: What is the difference between rms voltage and average voltage? Answer: The term "RMS" stands for "Root-Mean-Squared", also called the effective or heating value of alternating current, is equivalent to a DC voltage that would provide the same amount of heat generation in a resistor as the AC voltage would if applied to that same resistor. RMS is not an "Average" voltage, and its mathematical relationship to peak voltage varies depending on the type of waveform. The RMS value is the square root of the mean (average) value of the squared function of the instantaneous values. The average voltage is the level of a waveform defined by the condition that the area enclosed by the curve above this level is exactly equal to the area enclosed by the curve below this level, and it is the average voltage (or current) of a periodic waveform whether it is a sine wave, square wave or triangular waveform is defined as: “the quotient of the area under the waveform with respect to time”. In other words, the averaging of all the instantaneous values along time axis with time being one full period.
