    摘要: The present invention relates to a method of calibrating a humidity sensor device, comprising the steps determining a first dew point and a first relative humidity at a first temperature in an environment by the humidity sensor device using a first calibration offset; subsequently heating the humidity sensor device, in particular, by self-heating, thereby heating the environment to a second temperature higher than the first temperature; subsequently determining a second dew point at the second temperature by the humidity sensor device; subsequently determining whether the determined second dew point differs from the determined first dew point by more than a predetermined difference; and subsequently changing the first calibration offset of the humidity sensor device by a predetermined value to obtain a second calibration offset, if it is determined that the determined second dew point differs from the determined first dew point by more than the predetermined difference.

    摘要: The invention comprises a method and an analysing system for determining a quality of a hydrocarbon fluid. In an example, the electrical resistivity of the fluid is determined by means of a sensor device. The electrical resistivity is determined over time under predetermined conditions, and a change in the electrical resistivity is monitored over time. A change in fluid visocity may also be determined and monitored over time. The analysing system provides information about an absolute value of a difference of a total base number and a total acid number based on the monitored resistivity change that relates to the quality of the fluid for providing an indication of the remaining useful life of the fluid. In an example, the information about the fluid may correlate to oxidation and/or nitration of the fluid when a change in fluid visocity is below a predetermined threshold.

    摘要: A method provides a diagnostic on a combined humidity and temperature sensing device including a humidity sensor having a humidity sensing element, a temperature sensor, and a heater. The method comprises obtaining a first temperature and a first relative humidity, heating the humidity sensing element with the heater, obtaining a second temperature and a second relative humidity after heating the humidity sensing element, and determining a difference between the first temperature and the second temperature and a difference between the first relative humidity and the second relative humidity. Diagnostic information representative of a possible malfunction of the humidity sensor is output when the difference between the first temperature and the second temperature is higher than a predetermined temperature difference threshold and the difference between the first relative humidity and the second relative humidity is lower than a predetermined humidity difference threshold.
