7、fic to This Standard:3.3.1 ice-point bath, nphysical system containing ice andwater assembled to realize the ice point as a referencetemperature, or to establish a constant temperature near 0 C.4. Summary of Practice4.1 The ice-point bath described by this practice consists ofan intimate mixture, wi

8、thout voids, of pure shaved ice or iceparticles and distilled air-saturated water in a thermally insu-lating vessel open to the atmosphere.4.2 The ice bath realization of the ice point physicallyapproximates, with small uncertainty, a natural fixed-pointtemperature.4.2.1 An ice-point bath prepared b

9、y rigorous application ofthis practice, using distilled-water ice and air-saturated, chilleddistilled water, typically has a temperature of 0.000 6 0.002 Cat a barometric pressure of 101,325 Pa (1 standard atmo-sphere). See 8, Precision and Bias.4.2.2 The ice-point bath is open to the atmosphere. Th

10、esolubility of air in water, which affects phase change, is directlyproportional to the atmospheric pressure. The effect of baro-metric pressure on the pure ice point is 74 nK/Pa (7.5mK/atm). With saturated air in solution, the effect is increasedto approximately -0.1 K/Pa (-10 mK/atm). The initial

11、pressuregradient with elevation in the atmosphere is approximately-11.4 Pa/m. Accordingly, the change in the air-saturated ice-point temperature resulting from an increase in elevation abovesea level is approximately 1.1 mK/km for the first 1000 mincrease in altitude (0.33 mK per 1000 ft increase in

12、 altitude).4.3 The ice-bath temperature can also be measured with anaccurately calibrated thermometer or compared to a watertriple point cell and the bath temperature reported as themeasured temperature with an uncertainty that is attributed tothe measurement, not to the ice point.1This practice is

Significance and Use5.1 This practice is adequate for use with other ASTMstandards that specify the ice point as a reference. It is alsointended to be adequate for mo

16、st other ice-point referencepurposes.5.2 The ice point is a common practical industrial referencepoint of thermometry. The ice point is relatively simple torealize and provides a readily available natural fixed-pointreference temperature.5.3 Use in Resistance Thermometry:5.3.1 The ice point was a de

17、fining fixed point on practicaltemperature scales prior to 1960.5.3.2 The ITS-90 defines W(T90) = R(T90)/R(273.16 K), themeasured resistance ratio of a Standard Platinum ResistanceThermometer (SPRT), in reference to the water triple point, notthe ice point (1).3In many instances, where the water tri

18、plepoint is not available, or when the accuracy obtainable with thewater triple point is not required, reference to a properlyestablished and maintained ice-point reference is used. Forindustrial-quality resistance thermometers, the resistance valueis determined for 0 C, and an uncertainty that is a

19、ppropriatefor the quality of the ice-point realization is assigned.5.4 Use in Thermoelectric Thermometry:5.4.1 In thermoelectric thermometry, the ice point is ordi-narily used as the reference temperature (2).5.4.2 Adequate thermoelectric reference requires that ther-mocouple junctions be well-coupl

20、ed thermally to the bath,electrically isolated from each other and from the bath, andadequately immersed to avoid perturbing the reference-junction temperatures by radiation and longitudinal conductionof heat along the thermoelements (3 and 4).5.5 Use in Liquid-in-Glass Thermometry:5.5.1 In liquid-i

21、n-glass thermometry, the ice point is ordi-narily used as the reference temperature (6).5.5.2 The periodic recalibration of a liquid-in-glass ther-mometer at the ice point provides a reliable indication of theeffect of gradual relaxation of residual mechanical strains in theglass that have a signifi

22、cant effect on the volume of the bulb(6).6. Hazards6.1 Excess water accumulating in any region, particularlyaround the reference location, can elevate the temperature inthat vicinity above the ice point. Errors, usually somewhat lessthan 4 C, can occur from this cause in poorly maintained bathsand w

23、ith poorly positioned test objects (3 and 4).6.2 For a stirred bath, the temperature of the bath willdepend on the heat gained by the bath, the amount of water andice, and the vigor of stirring. The uniformity of temperature ofthe bath can be enhanced by slowly stirring or agitating theslush of ice

24、and water either manually or by a powered stirringmeans so that all of the ice and water in the bath come intointimate contact.6.3 Ice making machines operate below 0 C. Therefore,when excessively large ice particles are used to prepare theice-point bath, the initial temperature of the bath can brie

25、fly beslightly below the ice point.Also, some of the water may freezeand bridge some of the particles. Use of the bath must bedelayed long enough to establish thermal equilibrium, and theparticles shall be sufficiently small so that the bath approachesthe required state of ice and air-saturated wate

26、r in intimatecontact.6.4 Cleanliness is essential as small amounts of dissolvedsalts, and other contaminants can cause the equilibrium tem-perature to be below that of the ice-point temperature.7. Procedure7.1 In the practical use of the ice-point bath, two objectivesshall be accomplished: (1) the b

27、ath shall be established andmaintained so that its temperature is a good approximation tothat of the ice point, and (2) the object for which the referencetemperature is to be obtained shall be in thermal equilibriumwith the water-ice equilibrium temperature (water-ice interfacetemperature).7.2 Estab

28、lishing the Ice-Point:7.2.1 All equipment that comes in contact with the waterand ice of an ice-point bath shall be clean. Thoroughly rinse theequipment with tap water, then rinse with the type of waterused for the ice-point bath medium. Use clean plastic gloves tohandle the ice and equipment.7.2.2

29、Use water of purity equivalent to or better than type IVreagent water, Specification D1193, for the ice-point bathmedium. Chill a quantity of the water to near 0 C in a flaskand shake vigorously to aerate the water. Freeze anotherportion of the water to produce ice for the bath.7.2.3 Prepare finely

30、divided ice by shaving or crushing.Shaved ice resembling snow is preferred, but crushed ice isacceptable if the particles are small (not exceeding 2 to 3 mmin diameter).7.2.4 Prepare the bath in a clean thermally insulated vessel,preferably a wide-mouthed Dewar vacuum flask fitted with aninsulating

31、closure such as a stopper. The vessel should be largeenough that its size does not affect the water-ice equilibriumtemperature and of such diameter and depth that in thermalequilibrium the test objects will not significantly modify thetemperature of the bath over the region to which the ice pointis

32、to be applied. For usual applications, a diameter of at least 70mm and a depth of at least 300 mm may be adequate.7.2.5 Alternately add shaved ice and chilled water to thevessel, using enough water to saturate the ice but not enough tofloat it. As the vessel fills, compress the ice-water mixture tof

33、orce out excess water. The objective is to surround eachparticle of ice with water, filling all voids, but to keep the iceparticles as close together as possible. Continue adding ice andwater and compressing until the vessel is filled to the requiredlevel. Decant or siphon off excess water.7.2.6 Cov

34、er the ice-point bath to protect it. Use an opaqueand thermally insulating cover or stopper that is suitable for theapplication.Allow the bath and vessel to equilibrate for at least30 min before using.7.3 Using the Ice-Point Bath:7.3.1 Form a well in the ice-point bath that has the diameterand inten

35、ded immersion depth of the test object.3The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of references at the end ofthis standard.E563 1127.3.2 Cool the test object in water less than 3 C beforeimmersing it in the bath. This reduces the time to reachequilibrium at the ice point. Pre-cooling the

36、 sensor helps topreserve the bath at the ice point for a prolonged time and helpsensure that the water-ice interface will be in contact with thethermometer because negligible melting will occur to increasethe water film thickness.7.3.3 Insert the test object with the sensor portion of theobject, suc

37、h as the sensing element of an SPRT, to a depth ofat least ten object diameters below the surface. For thermo-electric thermo-elements of high thermal conductivity, as muchas 200 mm immersion may be necessary. For total immersionliquid-in-glass thermometers, immerse to the 0 C (32 F)mark. For partia

38、l immersion liquid-in-glass thermometers,immerse to the immersion line or stated immersion depth.Keep the sensor portion of the object several centimeters abovethe bottom of the flask to avoid the zone at the bottom wheredenser melt water tends to accumulate.7.3.4 Close the top of the vessel around

39、the test object withan opaque insulating stopper or other thermal barrier to reduceheat transfer through the surface of the bath.NOTE 1When liquid-in-glass thermometers are tested in an ice pointbath, the bath may be left uncovered. The loss of precision between acovered and uncovered bath may be be

40、low the resolution of liquid-in-glassthermometers. The user must test for this condition.7.3.5 Allow the bath and test object to come to thermalequilibrium.7.4 Maintaining the Bath:7.4.1 As ice particles in the bath melt, excess water beginsto accumulate. This melt water has a temperature slightlywa

41、rmer than 0 C. Since the density of water is at a maximumat 4 C, the slightly warm melt water will collect at the bottomof the bath and, hence, around the test object. Under theseconditions, the bath will no longer be at 0 C and cannot serveas an ice-point bath. For this reason surplus water should

42、beremoved, as it accumulates, from the bottom of the bath bydecanting or siphoning. The presence of excess water can bedetected if water overspill occurs when the ice is depressed.Add ice particles, and chilled water, as necessary so that the iceslush column always extends to at least 30 mm below th

43、elowest point of the test object.7.4.2 In order to sustain the ice point over prolongedperiods, the ice-point bath may be immersed in another baththat is kept near 0 C.8. Precision and Bias8.1 If a succession of ice-point baths is prepared by follow-ing all of the procedures described in this practi

44、ce, routinedetermination of the temperature of each of the baths with astable, well-calibrated standard platinum resistance thermom-eter will yield values of temperature that vary over a range ofabout 4 mK with a sample standard deviation of about 1 mK(5).8.2 The variability represents the reproduci

45、bility of the icepoint under the conditions of this practice, and the standarddeviation may be interpreted as a measure of the imprecision ofrealizing an ice point.8.3 The mean of values determined under the conditions of8.1 will be biased from 0 C by an amount negligible comparedto the variability

46、(5).8.4 An ice-point bath prepared by rigorous application ofthis practice may be assigned a temperature of 0 C with anexpanded total uncertainty (k = 2) of about 2 mK (5).8.5 Sources of Error and Uncertainty:8.5.1 The temperature of a poorly made or poorly main-tained ice-point bath can differ from

47、 0 C by as much as severalkelvins. Impurities in the water usually lower the temperature.Excessive water in the bath can cause an increase in tempera-ture as denser warm water settles to the bottom. Large chunksof very cold ice added to a bath can produce local temperaturedepression.8.5.2 Type IV gr

48、ade reagent water prepared with differentapparatus can produce ice-point baths with slightly differenttemperatures that are detectable with very precise thermom-etry. Temperature differences of 0.4 mK have been observed inice-point baths made from water purified in different stills (5).8.5.3 The tem

49、perature of an ice-point bath made withtypical potable city tap water may be low by 10 to 20 mK (3,5).8.5.4 The temperature of the ice-point bath is slightlydependent on pressure. The temperature is lowered by about6.3 K for each centimeter of depth below the liquid surfacedue to hydrostatic pressure. There is a corresponding effect forchanges in atmospheric pressure. In most cases, pressureeffects can be ignored (4).8.5.5 In an ice-point bath, the actual temperature of a pointin an immersed test object that conducts heat into the bathdepends on time, positio
