perfectly calibrated
By J. A. Grim
I am a meteorologist and thus need a very accurate thermometer for calibrating an automated electronic temperature sensor on my weather station. First though, I needed to make sure that this thermometer was perfectly calibrated itself. To do this, I mixed snow and water in a tube so that it was a perfect low viscosity slush. Once the temperature settled, the thermometer read 0.0 C on the button! Next, I need to check the boiling point, which at 5000 feet where I live, should be about 95.0 C on average (it varies a few tenths of a degree depending on the current atmospheric pressure.) So, I brought some water to a low boil, measured the temperature, and it was within a couple tenths of a degree of 95 C. I am very happy it is so accurate, and because of its accuracy, I am very confident that my calibrations of the electronic temperature sensor are also very accurate.
