  2. Thermal expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion

    If the expansion coefficient is known, the change in volume can be calculated = where / is the fractional change in volume (e.g., 0.002) and is the change in temperature (50 °C). The above example assumes that the expansion coefficient did not change as the temperature changed and the increase in volume is small compared to the original volume.

  3. Charles's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles's_law

    where V 100 is the volume occupied by a given sample of gas at 100 °C; V 0 is the volume occupied by the same sample of gas at 0 °C; and k is a constant which is the same for all gases at constant pressure. This equation does not contain the temperature and so is not what became known as Charles's Law.

  4. Volume (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_(thermodynamics)

    The partial volume of a particular gas is a fraction of the total volume occupied by the gas mixture, with unchanged pressure and temperature. In gas mixtures, e.g. air, the partial volume allows focusing on one particular gas component, e.g. oxygen.

  5. Volume correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    In thermodynamics, the Volume Correction Factor (VCF), also known as Correction for the effect of Temperature on Liquid (CTL), is a standardized computed factor used to correct for the thermal expansion of fluids, primarily, liquid hydrocarbons at various temperatures and densities. [1]

  6. δ18O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Δ18O

    Based on the simplifying assumption that the signal can be attributed to temperature change alone, with the effects of salinity and ice volume change ignored, Epstein et al. (1953) estimated that a δ 18 O increase of 0.22‰ is equivalent to a cooling of 1 °C (or 1.8 °F). [3]

  7. Joule expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_expansion

    [5] [6] The inversion temperature of a gas is typically much higher than room temperature; exceptions are helium, with an inversion temperature of about 40 K, and hydrogen, with an inversion temperature of about 200 K. Since the internal energy of the gas during Joule expansion is constant, cooling must be due to the conversion of internal ...

  9. Boyle's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyle's_law

    For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. [2] Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when the temperature is held constant.
