  2. Galileo thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo_thermometer

    A Celsius Galilean thermometer in two degree gradations. A risen orange orb denotes 24 °C. A Galileo thermometer (or Galilean thermometer) is a thermometer made of a sealed glass cylinder containing a clear liquid and several glass vessels of varying density. The individual floats rise or fall in proportion to their respective density and the ...

    As a temperature indicator it used red wine. (Rømer scale), The temperature scale used for his thermometer had 0 representing the temperature of a salt and ice mixture (at about 259 s). 1709 — Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit constructed alcohol thermometers which were reproducible (i.e. two would give the same temperature)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoscope

    Philo of Byzantium is credited with the construction of the first thermoscope (or Philo thermometer), an early version of the thermometer. [6] It is also thought, but not certain, that Galileo Galilei discovered the specific principle on which the device is based and built the first thermoscope in 1593.

  5. Giovanni Francesco Sagredo - Wikipedia

    Sagredo added a scale to Galileo's thermoscope to enable the quantitative measurement of temperature, [14] and produced more convenient portable thermometers. [15] Sagredo also discussed with Galileo the possibility of a telescope using a mirror (a reflecting telescope). [16] In June 1619, Galileo and Sagredo exchanged portraits. [17]

    Galileo. 1607 – Galileo Galilei constructs a thermoscope. Not only did this device measure temperature, but it represented a paradigm shift. Up to this point, heat and cold were believed to be qualities of Aristotle's elements (fire, water, air, and earth). Note: There is some controversy about who actually built this first thermoscope.

    Vapour pressure thermometer Density Galileo thermometer [45] Thermochromism Some compounds exhibit thermochromism at distinct temperature changes. Thus by tuning the phase transition temperatures for a series of substances the temperature can be quantified in discrete increments, a form of digitization. This is the basis for a liquid crystal ...
