iStability® MKT
This article contains two data sets with manually calculated mean kinetic temperatures. This page presents additional validation information by comparing the mean kinetic temperatures computed by iStability® MKT with those listed in this article.
Data Set 1
Mean of the highest and lowest temperatures for each week over a period of 52 weeks was 25 °C (i.e., the same mean for each week). The manually calculated mean kinetic temperature with an activation energy of 83.144 kJ/ mole as reported in the article is 25 °C.
The mean kinetic temperature computed by iStability® MKT is shown in the screenshot below:
Data Set 2
The following low and high temperatures of 12 intervals are used:
| Temperature (°C) | ||
|---|---|---|
| Interval | Low | High |
| 1 | 15 | 27 |
| 2 | 20 | 25 |
| 3 | 17 | 25 |
| 4 | 20 | 25 |
| 5 | 22 | 27 |
| 6 | 15 | 25 |
| 7 | 20 | 26 |
| 8 | 22 | 26 |
| 9 | 23 | 27 |
| 10 | 20 | 28 |
| 11 | 20 | 24 |
| 12 | 22 | 28 |
The manually calculated mean kinetic temperature with an activation energy of 83.144 kJ/mole as reported in the article is 23.01 °C.
The mean kinetic temperature computed by iStability® MKT is shown in the screenshot below:
Conclusion
For both data sets, the calculated mean kinetic temperatures are the same from two independent sources.
