  1. The Equation to Correlate Intensity and Temperature to PPM

  2. Outline • Thoughts and theory behind approach • Temperature fixed, intensity to ppm correlation • Final equation • How well it works so far – on two sets of data gathered

  3. Thoughts (1) • Initially, I wanted to try temperature correction. But the baseline was always the same – at roughly 1300. What does change is how far the signal drops at higher temperature. • I used this value of 1300 to normalize the intensity value. And then I subtracted this value from 1, so that instead of dropping, it would go increase. I then plotted this against the PPM readings. With increased temperature, the signal difference is lowered.

  4. Thoughts (2) • This approach was to just try the first 4 cycle (90 minutes apart). • I set it up so that there was the same X axis for the two data points (occurring every 60 seconds) • This did not look very promising. Everything was scattered. There was no 1-1 correlation. • I then decided there was too many points. So I took it at the last minute before there was a location change. It looked much better there.

  5. Thoughts (3) • I knew that this dataset, to get PPM there were two dependencies – Temperature and Intensity readings. I struggled to find a way to relate the two. • In the end, I decided that perhaps, I can use the simple (y = mx + b) equation. Twice. • Y = (A*T+C)*X +(D*E+F), at least that was the plan.

  6. Thoughts (4) • I tested to see if I held something constant, if the other two correlations were linear. They amazingly were. These had a dependency on Intensity. • I then plotted these coefficients, and found a relationship, dependent on Temperature. • With this, I was able to have an equation with both Temperature and Intensity

  7. The following are the graphs made • The intercept was arbitrarily set to 0.3. The reason was because the b part of (y = mx+b) had no correlation. The 0.3 is roughly what the outside NH3 is.

  8. Final Equation (Rough) • PPM = (35.423*TEMP-758.36)*INTENSITYRATIO+0.3

  9. Sample test. Looks very good.
