CCT Task Group for Thermophysical Quantities (CCT-TG-ThQ)

Terms of reference

The general objectives of the the CCT-TG-ThQ are to:

• identify, study and advise the CCT on matters related to thermophysical quantities;
• foster and strengthen the scientific and technical collaborations among current and prospective CCT-TG-ThQ members;
• disseminate the metrological expertise and knowledge for the benefit of Industry and Society;
• develop and maintain active connections with the international thermophysical quantities community.

Tasks:

• review the service categories and identify research topic priorities in the field;
• suggest new comparisons to be performed in the field;
• coordinate and perform ongoing and future comparisons useful for the preparation of CMC entries related to the field;
• when required, and according to priorities defined by the CCT-TG-ThQ, draft documents on uncertainty budgets and guidance related to thermophysical quantities measurements;
• exchange information on innovative techniques relevant to the field of thermal quantity measurements;
• provide elements useful for the CCT strategic planning;
• contribute to provide information to one of the electronic tools managed by the CCT and useful for the thermal metrology community including the thermophysical quantities community.
