Any experimental results would have some magnitude of error. This error is collective result of biased errorand unavoidable random variation which comes with instrumental limitations and repetitive experimental observations.In order to calculate the error in result of an experiment, we need a substantial amount of observations to find it.However, economic and time constrains make it unfeasible to repeat the experiment number of times. Hence, there aresome mathematical models which are used to calculate ‘expected error' of derived parameters of an experiment.Using one such model by Kline and McClintock, we have done uncertainty analysis on findings of an experiment on adiesel fired boiler for steam turbine test rig. The observation and findings used for analysis is collected from anexperiment on a steam turbine test rig commissioned at The Department of Mechanical Engineering of M. S. University[1]. We have used Wolfram Mathematica software for the purpose of calculation
