A metrology researcher who measured the <vapor pressure> of water using a controlled boiler and precision <manometer>. Comparing pressure with independently calibrated temperature readings supplies a quantitative relation between the two. The work also reports uncertainties, making the results useful for testing vapor-pressure formulas and temperature standards.<Some Precise Measurements of the Vapor Pressure of Water in the Range From 25 to 100 °C by H. F. Stimson>[Abstract and pp. 493–496: boiler, manometer, temperatures and uncertainty estimates]{ref}
