Abstract: An uncertainty in temperature measurement system is analyzed by deriving the transfer function model using interval arithmetic. The measurement system uses Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) as a sensor and the uncertainty assumed is structured one.

Keywords: Uncertainty analysis, RTD, Interval arithmetic
