This paper presents the results of several studies concerning the effect of temperature on digital cameras. Experiments were performed using three different camera models. The presented results conclusively demonstrate that the typical camera design does not adequately take into account the effect of temperature variation on the device’s performance. In this regard, a modified camera design is proposed that exhibits a highly predictable behavior under varying ambient temperature and facilitates thermal compensation. A novel temperature compensation method is also proposed. This compensation model can be applied in almost every existing camera application, as it is compatible with every camera calibration model. A two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) application of the proposed compensation model is also described. The results of the application of the proposed compensation approach are presented herein.

The effect of temperature on three-dimensional (3D) structured light scanners is a very complex issue that, under some conditions, can lead to significant deterioration of performed measurements. In this paper, we present the results of several studies concerning the effect of temperature on the mechanical base of 3D-structured light scanners. We also propose a software compensation method suitable for implementation in any existing scanner. The most significant advantage of the described method is the fact that it does not require any specialized artifact or any additional equipment, nor access to the thermal chamber. It uses a simulation of mechanical base thermal deformations and a virtual 3D measurement environment that allows for conducting virtual measurements. The results from the verification experiments show that the developed method can extend the range of temperatures in which 3D-structured light scanners can perform valid measurements by more than six-fold.

Wire-mesh sensors are well-established scientific instruments for measuring the spatio-temporal phase distribution of two-phase flows based on different electrical conductivities of the phases. Presently, these instruments are also applied in industrial processes and need to cope with dynamic operating conditions increasingly. However, since the quantification of phase fractions is achieved by normalizing signals with respect to a separately recorded reference measurement, the results are sensitive to temperature differences in any application. Therefore, the present study aims at proposing a method to compensate temperature effects in the data processing procedure. Firstly, a general approach is theoretically derived from the underlying measurement principle and compensation procedures for the electrical conductivity from literature models. Additionally, a novel semi-empirical model is developed on the basis of electrochemical fundamentals. Experimental investigations are performed using a single-phase water loop with adjustable fluid temperature in order to verify the theoretical approach for wire-mesh sensor applications and to compare the different compensation models by means of real data. Finally, the preferred model is used to demonstrate the effect of temperature compensation with selected sets of experimental two-phase data from a previous study. The results are discussed in detail and show that temperature effects need to be handled carefully—not merely in industrial applications, but particularly in laboratory experiments.

The high precise pH automatic monitoring measurement is designed based on MSC1210 MCU and pH sensor. To eliminate the effect of temperature on the measurement results, a pH value temperature compensation module is established using the least Squares Method to analyze the linear relationship between pH and voltage. The results show that, the automatic monitoring measurement possesses broad application prospects with the advantages of ultra-low power consumption, good stability and high precision.

A variable value water resistor speed control system for rotor winding induction motor is introduced. On the basis of the structure about the water resistance and the governor principle, the steady-state mathematical model and the dynamic mathematical models are established. The effect of temperature changes on the resistance of the electrolyte solution is discussed, and temperature compensation is proposed. Simulation results show that the water resistance speed control system is feasible.

The effect of temperature on the in vitro androgen secretion of testes from hibernating ground squirrels was measured in response to stimulation by luteinizing hormone (LH). We wished to determine whether hibernating ground squirrels can maintain responsiveness of gonads while at the low body temperatures of torpor. In gonads incubated at 32 °C, secretion of testosterone increased in a dose-dependent manner in response to ovine-LH or ground squirrel pituitary homogenate. This responsiveness was reduced at 20 and 9 °C and absent at 5 °C, the temperature that most closely approximates the body temperature of torpid ground squirrels. This temperature sensitivity was similar to that in the nonhibernating laboratory mouse. Superfusion of ground squirrel testes revealed a lag of testosterone secretion in response to LH and, additionally, an ability of testes to secrete testosterone after being only briefly exposed to ovine-LH while at 5 °C. These results provide evidence against a hypothesis of temperature compensation that would allow continued testis function during torpor, and support a previous study which indicated that gonadal growth is restricted to intervals of normothermy during and after the hibernation season.

Variations in temperature during time-lapse electrical resistivity imaging (ERI) surveys introduce changes in electrical conductivity (EC). When the goal of the time-lapse ERI survey is to image changes in EC due to changes in saturation or pore water salinity, compensation must be made for the effect of temperature variations. A temperature-compensation method can approximate time-lapse ERI data with the effect of temperature variations removed. First uncompensated ERI data are inverted. The inversion model then is adjusted to a standard temperature image. Forward simulations are performed using the uncompensated inversion and the standard temperature equivalent model. The temperature-compensated simulated resistance data are subtracted from the uncompensated simulated resistance data, forming data correction terms. The data correction terms then are subtracted from the measured data to yield temperature-compensated data. Using the temperature-compensated data, inversions have been carried out on two synthetic data sets and a field example. Differencing two temperature-compensated data inversions is found to be superior to differencing two postinversion standard temperature equivalent images. Temperature compensation on the data allows temperature corrections to be applied to time-lapse difference inversion schemes and hydrogeophysical inversion where postinversion temperature-correction methods are not easily applied.
