National Physical Laboratory of India is realized by using an absolute radiometer. For practical work, a group of tungsten incandescent lamps are used. The level of uncertainty is ± 1.3 × 10. Experimental work has been initiated to realize mole, the SI unit for amount of substance The NPL does not maintain standards of measurements for ionizing radiations. This is the responsibility of the Homi Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai. The standards maintained at NPL are periodically compared with standards maintained at other National Metrological Institutes in the world as well as the BIPM in Paris. This exercise ensures that Indian national standards are equivalent
Entropy entropy, have dimensions of energy divided by temperature, which has a unit of joules per kelvin (J K) in the International System of Units (or kg m s K in terms of base units). The entropy of a substance is usually given as an intensive property—either entropy per unit mass (SI unit: J K kg) or entropy per unit amount of substance (SI unit: J K mol). The French mathematician Lazare Carnot proposed in his 1803 paper "Fundamental Principles of Equilibrium and Movement" that in any machine the accelerations and shocks of the moving parts represent losses of "moment of
