Uncertainty of the density of moist air: Gum x Monte Carlo

In this study two methods of evaluation of uncertainty, the law of propagation of uncertainties (as recommended by GUM) and the method of Monte Carlo, are compared. As a particular case the determination of the density of moist air was considered The results show that there are some differences between both methods.

Density of moist air; propagation of uncertainties; Monte Carlo
