LNE-CETIAT
LNE-CETIAT (Centre Technique des Industries Aérauliques et Thermiques) is a study, testing and calibration laboratory in the fields of aerodynamics and fluid mechanics, heat sciences and acoustics. LNE-CETIAT calibration range cover 1 ml/h to 36 m3/h for water flow. With its calibration facilities and expertise in small flow of liquid, LNE-CETIAT was an evident partner for the MeDD project.
Dr. Ing. Christopher David: “With the increasing needs for efficiency and to overcome the environmental issues (lower the waste), miniaturization of all processes is a true challenge. Health is not drawn aside and the control of low liquid flows is now a key parameter for research activities, dosing of medicines and stabilization of patients.”
In the MeDD-project, LNE-CETIAT will contribute by harmonization of practices and results obtained by the different National Metrological Institutes (organization of inter-laboratories comparisons), the characterization of drug delivery devices and accessories and the dissemination of knowledge via scientific papers and congress organization
Mr David: “The main challenge for LNE-CETIAT related to this project is to overcome the differences in technical practices of flow measurement within the MeDD group in order to be able to compare calibration results. This experience will help in the harmonization of flow measurement uncertainties and offer the possibility to disseminate this knowledge to others calibration facilities.”
