English term or phrase: influence quantity
Definition from evigem.org:
Quantity that is not the measurand but that affects the result of the measurement. EXAMPLES: a) temperature of a micrometer used to measure length; b) frequency in the measurement of the amplitude of an alternating electric potential difference.

Example sentence(s):
  • The effect of an influence quantity on the measurement process is an interference that generates a systematic error. In clinical chemistry, depending on the molecular entity responsible for an interference, influence quantities may be classified as endogenous or exogenous. Clinical Chemistry
  • This means that there has to be a specified relationship between the influence quantities and the measurand. This relationship is known as the mathematical model. This is an equation that describes how each influence quantity affects the value assigned to the measurand. labnews.co.uk
  • By using the measurement model built to approximately compute the sensitivity coefficient that reflects the uncertainty propagating law of each influence quantity, it is possible to evaluate the result of indirect measurement and its uncertainties. CAT.INIST

influensstørrelse


Definition from Den Store Danske:
Influensstørrelse, fysisk størrelse, der indirekte påvirker resultatet af en måling.

Example sentence(s):
  • Ved fx vejning af et lod skal måleresultatet korrigeres for massen af den luft, som loddet fortrænger. Denne masse afhænger af luftens densitet, der igen afhænger af de fire influensstørrelser temperaturen, lufttrykket, luftfugtigheden og luftens indhold af kuldioxid. - Den Store Danske
