The analysis was performed using a numerical method of distribution propagation (the Monte Carlo method) supplemented with results of application of the uncertainty propagation method. In addition, the optimum conditions for the airdrop are determined to ensure achieving the maximum area covered by the water capsule with simultaneous preserving the precision level necessary for efficient fire extinguishing.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Metrological Analysis of Precision of the System of Delivering a Water Capsule for Explosive Production of Water Aerosol}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/90381/PDF/10.1515-2016-0006-paper_05.pdf}, doi={10.1515/mms-2016-0006}, keywords={water capsule airdrop control system, uncertainty analysis, GUM uncertainty framework, propagation of distributions}, }
