German term or phrase: rechnerisches Herantasten
Das Programm erlaubt das rechnerische Herantasten an die Umgebungstemperatur ϑkrit des „gerade Durchgehens“ (= SADT) auf hundertstel Grade. Die Angaben in Tabelle 7 täuschen eine zu hohe Genauigkeit vor. Die Unsicherheiten liegen zumindest bei mehreren zehntel Graden. Die Zahlenwerte mit zwei Dezimalstellen wurden verwendet, um geringe Unterschiede bei den Vergleichen noch zu erkennen lassen.
