Annexes
A. Tests for outliers
B. Student's t distribution
C. Uncertainty in variables for which the values are
derived from independent experiments
D. Combination of uncertainties
Calculations required in order to arrive at a statistical estimate of the interval within which the true flowrate may be expected to lie. The calculations are so presented as to be applicable to measurement in both closed and open ducts.
