  2. Thermal expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion

    The volumetric expansion coefficient would be 0.2% for 50 K, or 0.004% K −1. If the expansion coefficient is known, the change in volume can be calculated ...

  3. Volume expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_expansion

    Volume expansion may refer to: Thermal expansion; Hypervolemia, an abnormally high level of fluid in the blood This page was last edited on 22 ...

  4. Volume expander - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_expander

    A volume expander is a type of intravenous therapy ... Colloids are more expensive than crystalloids. As such, colloids are not recommended for volume expansion in ...

  5. Volumetric heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_heat_capacity

    The volumetric heat capacity of a substance, especially a gas, may be significantly higher when it is allowed to expand as it is heated (volumetric heat capacity at constant pressure) than when is heated in a closed vessel that prevents expansion (volumetric heat capacity at constant volume).

  6. 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]

  7. Joule–Thomson effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule–Thomson_effect

    The method of expansion discussed in this article, in which a gas or liquid at pressure P 1 flows into a region of lower pressure P 2 without significant change in kinetic energy, is called the Joule–Thomson expansion. The expansion is inherently irreversible. During this expansion, enthalpy remains unchanged (see proof below). Unlike a free ...

  9. Joule expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_expansion

    The Joule expansion (a subset of free expansion) is an irreversible process in thermodynamics in which a volume of gas is kept in one side of a thermally isolated container (via a small partition), with the other side of the container being evacuated. The partition between the two parts of the container is then opened, and the gas fills the ...
