These calculations are performed according to the paper "Power Test Code Thermometer Wells" by J. W. Murdoch, and also
meet the requirements of ASME PTC 19.3-1998. The program supplies results which should only be used as a guide for

thermowell design. Thermo-Kinetics assumes no responsibility for failure of a well based on the results of these calculations,
and accepts no liability direct or consequential, arising from error or misinformation supplied herein, or from program misuse.
