  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 ...

  3. Thermoscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoscope

    Large thermoscopes placed outdoors appeared to cause perpetual motion of contained water, and these were therefore sometimes called perpetuum mobile. [3] Galileo's own work with the thermoscope led him to develop an essentially atomistic conception of heat, published in his book Il Saggiatore in 1623.

  4. Meteorological instrumentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteorological_instrumentation

    The 17th century saw the development of the barometer and the Galileo thermometer while the 18th century saw the development of the thermometer with the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales. The 20th century developed new remote sensing tools, such as weather radars, weather satellites and wind profilers, which provide better sampling both regionally ...

  5. Indoor–outdoor thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indoor–outdoor_thermometer

    In an indoor–outdoor thermometer based on a conventional liquid-in-glass thermometer, the stem of the outdoor thermometer is connected to the bulb by a long, flexible or semi-rigid capillary. The temperature scale is marked on the stem as usual. However, the temperature that is actually measured is the temperature at the bulb. [1]

  6. Thermometer - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  7. Giovanni Francesco Sagredo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giovanni_Francesco_Sagredo

    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]
