Abstract

The first edition of this book was co-published by Ane Books India, and CRC Press in 2008. This second edition is an enlarged version of the web course developed by the author at IIT Madras, and also a modified and augmented version of the earlier book. Major additions/modifications presented are in the treatment of errors in measurement, temperature measurement, measurement of thermo-physical properties, and data manipulation. Many new worked examples have been introduced in this new and updated second edition.

The second edition of the book has been thoroughly revised and all errors that have come to my notice have been corrected. Additions have been made at various places in the book. Notable additions are in the statistical analysis of measured data in Module I. Important questions regarding normality of deviations and identification of outliers have been discussed in great detail. These should interest the advanced reader who is looking for an understanding of these issues. Thermistors have been described in greater detail in Chpater 4. Also, the line reversal technique of measuring gas temperature has been described in greater detail. Theory of the integrating sphere has been discussed in detail in Chapter 12. Module V has been augmented with more examples from laboratory practice. Exercises are now positioned at the end of each module. Many new exercise problems have been added in this edition.
