Thermometric Properties
- Volume of a liquid
- emf generated by termocouple
- pressure of gas at constant volume
- resistance of wire
- colour of body
-
types
-
liquid in glass
-
Alcohol
- oven
-
high scale
- 250º C
-
Mercury
-
short scale
- from 34º C to 39º C
- medical
- mercury does not flow back down tube
-
Thermocouple
-
two wires
- different metals
- loop
-
millivoltmeter
- measures EMF
-
when wires at different temprature
- emf voltage is generated
-
platinum resistance
-
Why platinum?
- high melting point
- resitance can be accurately measured
-
constant volume gas
- gas in sealed container
-
heat
-
cant expand
- preasure builds
-
given as
-
pV/T
- p = pressure
- v = volume
- t = temperature
-
optical pyrometers
-
bright red
