Abstract
Detection of gross errors in chemical engineering measurements is studied, based on statistical analysis of redundant data. The error of third type has been defined as the unacceptably large error of a quantity which is the aim of measurement, while the gross error of measurement is not detected. The method of classification of directly measured quantities into disjoint subsets is described according to possible effective detection of occurence of gross errors of measurements by statistical analysis of measured data.
