In the cultural heritage preservation of medieval buildings, it is common to find plaster walls covered in lime, which previously were painted in polychromy. The conservation interventions usually try to remove the whitewash, whilst maintaining the original color of the painted wall as much as possible. However, there is no agreement on which cleaning technique best preserves the original appearance of the colored plaster. Different pigments found below the lime layer may behave differently depending on the cleaning technique used. Usually, colorimetric or photometric area-based measurements are carried out to study the color of the cleaned areas to compare with their original color, obtained from pre-made plaster probes. However, this methodology fails when the mean color difference is not enough to fully characterize the changes in texture and color appearance. This study presents a set of experiments carried out using two different pigments (cinnabar and malachite) covered with lime, and treated with nine different cleaning techniques on plaster probes prepared according to medieval techniques. We have studied the effect of the cleaning process on the color and the homogeneity of the samples using a hyperspectral imaging workflow. Four different analysis methods are presented and discussed. Our results show that the proposed analysis is able to provide a much more comprehensive and diversified characterization of the quality of the cleaning method compared to the commonly used colorimetric or photometric area-based measurements.

This paper presents the uncertainty characterization of NIST’s new hydrocarbon liquid flow calibrator (HLFC). This facility uses a passive piston prover technique where fluid is driven by pumps while the measuring piston is passively stroked through the calibration interval. This facility is typically operated using MIL-C-7024C fluid (also known as Stoddard solvent – a surrogate liquid for JP-4 and JP-5 jet fuels), but using a variety of other fluids offers a wider range of measurements. The range of flows for this facility is 0.19 to 5.7 liters per minute – lpm (0.05 to 1.5 gallons per minute – gpm). Over this range, the expanded uncertainty claim for this facility is ±0.01%, at 95% confidence level. The uncertainty of a dual-turbine meter tested in the system is also reported. In addition, NIST is working to incorporate additional piston provers so that the flow for hydrocarbon liquids calibration service will reach 760 lpm (200 gpm).

This paper deals with fabrication and characterization of liquid flow sensor based on electrokinetic effect – streaming potential. The possibility of using silicon microchannel membrane as a sensing element of the sensor has been demonstrated. Electric response of the sensor has been determined by passing deionized water through the membrane. A linear dependence of the operating characteristic has been found. Sensitivity and performance of the electrokinetic device have been evaluated. The optimal design of the liquid flow sensor has been proposed
