ABSTRACT Inaccuracies in the Formula method for thermal process evaluation–which could lead to overestimates of the lethal value and reduce the margin of safety of processes‐were found. Revised tables for C:g and f h /U:g systems are presented as well as revised coefficients for polynomials fitted to the tables for use in programmable calculators.
