Lecture 6 Temperature & Thermal Expansion LECTURE 6 TEMPERATURE & THERMAL EXPANSION Lecture Instructor: Kazumi Tolich Lecture 6 2 ¨ Reading chapter 13-1 to 13-2. ¤ The zeroth law of thermodynamics ¤ Temperature scales ¤ Thermal expansion Heat 3 Heat is defined as the energy transferred between objects because of a temperature difference. ¨ An object does not contain heat. ¨ Objects are in thermal contact if heat flows between them. ¤ The hot object cools off while the cold object warms up. ¨ Objects are in thermal equilibrium when there is no transfer of heat between them. ¨ The study of physical processes involving the transfer of heat is thermodynamics. Thermal equilibrium 4 ¨ Zeroth law of thermodynamics: If two objects are in thermal equilibrium with a third object, then all three of the objects are in thermal equilibrium with each other. ¨ Two objects in thermal contact are in equilibrium when they have the same temperature. Temperature scales 5 ¨ To define a temperature scale we need to define the temperature at two points. ¨ In the Celsius scale, water freezes at 0 ºC and boils at 100 ºC. ¨ In the Fahrenheit scale, water freezes at 32 ºF and boils at 212 ºF. 9 TF = ( 5 Fº Cº)TC + 32 º F 5 TC = ( 9 Cº Fº) (TF − 32 º F) Demo: 1 6 ¨ Liquid crystal sheets ¤ Temperature-sensitive liquid crystal detects changing temperature Constant-volume gas thermometers 7 ¨ By adjusting the level of mercury in the right-hand tube, the level of mercury in the left-hand tube can be set to a fixed reference level. ¨ The gas occupies a constant volume and its pressure is Pgas = Pat + ρgh. Absolute zero and the Kelvin temperature scale 8 ¨ Using a constant-volume gas thermometer, we learn that if we continue to lower the temperature, we eventually reach zero pressure at -273.15ºC, independent of the type of gas. ¨ The Kelvin temperature scale defines 0 K to be exactly at this temperature, absolute zero, and has the same degree size as the Celsius scale. ¨ The conversion between a Celsius temperature and a Kelvin temperature is T = TC + 273.15 Example: 1 9 ¨ A constant-volume gas thermometer has a pressure of P1 = 80.3 kPa at T1 = -10.0 °C and a pressure of P2 = 86.4 kPa at T2 = 10.0 °C. a) At what temperature does the pressure of this system extrapolate to zero? b) What are the pressures of the gas at the freezing and boiling points of water? c) In general terms, how would your answers to parts a) and b) change if a different constant-volume thermometer is used? Thermal expansion 10 ¨ Most substances expand when heated. ¤ An increase in temperature implies an increase in vibrations of atoms. This results in greater spacing among atoms in solids. ¨ Water is one of the exceptions. ¨ Many thermometers measure temperature using the expansion of some material such as mercury or alcohol. Linear, area, and volume expansions 11 ¨ The change in length ΔL is given by ΔL = αL0ΔT ¤ α is coefficient of linear expansion, L0 is the original length, and ΔT is the temperature change. ¨ The change in area ΔA is approximated by ΔA ≈ 2αAΔT ¤ A is the original area. ¨ The change in volume ΔV is ΔV = βVΔT ≈ 3αVΔT ¤ β is coefficient of volume expansion, and V is the original volume. Bimetallic strips 12 ¨ A bimetallic strip consists of two different metals with different coefficients of linear expansion. ¨ Bimetallic strips can be used for thermostats or thermometers. Demo: 2 13 ¨ Bimetallic strip and coil ¤ Demonstration of different thermal expansion in different metals Clicker question: 1 & 2 14 Demo: 3 15 ¨ Ball and hole ¤ Demonstration of thermal area expansion Example: 2 16 ¨ A hole in an aluminum plate has a diameter of d1 = 1.178 cm at T1 = 23.00 °C. a) What is the diameter of the hole, d2, at T2 = 199.0 °C? b) At what temperature, T3, is the diameter of the hole equal to d3 = 1.176 cm? Clicker question: 3 17 Special properties of water 18 ¨ Solid ice is less dense than liquid water. ¤ You can see only ~10% of icebergs above water surface. ¨ The density of water is maximum at 4 °C. ¤ Water shrinks as you heat it from 0 °C to 4 °C. Demo: 4 19 ¨ Density of 4 °C water ¤ Demonstration of why fish can live in lakes during a cold winter ¤ Density of 4 °C water is the highest. .

  • On the Definition of the Measurement Unit for Extreme Quantity Values: Some Considerations on the Case of Temperature and the Kelvin Scale
    ON THE DEFINITION OF THE MEASUREMENT UNIT FOR EXTREME QUANTITY VALUES: SOME CONSIDERATIONS ON THE CASE OF TEMPERATURE AND THE KELVIN SCALE Franco Pavese 1 1 Torino, Italy E-mail (corresponding author): [email protected] Abstract Many quantities are attributed a range of values that can apparently extend to infinity (on one side or both sides). In this respect, the definitions of their measurement units do not place any constraint to the maximum (or minimum) value for their validity. In general, that happens because those extreme values are far from being reached on the earth, or presently in experiments. However, since the same units are used also in fields of physics, chemistry or technology where they could occur—namely in the description of the universe in one sense, and in pico-nanoscale or particle physics in another sense—the issue of extreme values (not in statistical meaning here) is not irrelevant. The question placed and discussed in this paper is whether the present kelvin scale, based on Lord Kelvin’s second definition (our currently accepted concept of temperature), applies over a full range between bounds (0, ∞) or not, and about the concept of temperature in itself in the extremes regions. The aim, however, is not to provide an answer, but to suggest there are difficulties with the application of current concepts at extremes of temperature. Keywords: kelvin scale; Lord Kelvin proposals; extreme temperatures; temperature definition; unit definition 1 Introduction Many quantities have a range of values that can apparently extend to infinity (on one side or both sides). In this respect, the definition of their measurement units does not place any constraint to the maximum (or minimum) value for its validity.

  • The Third Law of Thermodynamics Or an Absolute Definition for Entropy. Part
    The third law of thermodynamics or an absolute definition for Entropy. Part 1 : the origin and applications in thermodynamics. Accepted for the revue: “La Météorologie ” / Revision 2 - December 2, 2019. by Pascal Marquet. Météo-France, CNRM/GMAP, Toulouse. Abstract This article describes the third law of thermodynamics. This law is often poorly known and is often decried, or even considered optional and irrelevant to describe weather and climate phenomena. This, however, is inaccurate and contrary to scientific facts. A rather exhaustive historical study is proposed here in order to better understand, in another article to come, why the third principle can be interesting for the atmosphere sciences. 1 Introduction Before being able to study in a second part the properties of entropy in the atmosphere, it is necessary to recall in this first part why its calculation poses certain problems in thermodynamics, problems whose solution passes through the invention and the application of the third law of thermodynamics which introduces a kind of absolute in the calculation of entropy. And the idea that certain absolutes may exist had preceded the establishment of the third law. 2 The notion of absolute temperature Thermodynamics teaches us that the notion of temperature corresponds to the measurement of the energy of the microscopic agitations of atoms or molecules in the solids, liquids or gases which constitute the environment which surrounds us, and therefore in particular in the atmosphere. Carnot (1824) was able to establish the existence of universal things, supposing that the perpetual motion of thermal machines was impossible. He first highlighted the existence of a maximum efficiency that depends only on the temperatures of the bodies between which these machines operate.

The phase composition, microstructure, phase change temperature and enthalpy of the alloy were investigated after 100, 200, 400 and 500 thermal cycles. The results indicate that no considerable phase transformation and structural change occurred, and only a small decrease in phase transition temperature and enthalpy appeared in the alloy after 500 thermal cycles, which implied that the Mg–25%Cu–15%Zn eutectic alloy had thermal reliability with respect to repeated thermal cycling, which can provide a theoretical basis for industrial application. Thermal expansion and thermal Citation: Sun, Z.; Li, L.; Cheng, X.; conductivity of the alloy between room temperature and melting temperature were also determined. Zhu, J.; Li, Y.; Zhou, W.

  • The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion and Your Heating System By: Admin - May 06, 2021
    The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion and your Heating System By: Admin - May 06, 2021 We’ve all been there. The lid on pickle jar is impossibly tight, but when you run hot water over the jar you can easily unscrew the lid. The metal lid expands more than the glass jar, which is a simple illustration of how materials, when heated, expand at different rates. The relationship of how materials expand or contract through temperature change is driven by the coefficient of thermal expansion or CTE of those materials and is a critical factor when designing a heater. Determining the appropriate materials for the heater is not as simple as running warm water over a metal lid. The coefficient of thermal expansion is a critical factor when pairing dissimilar materials in a system. With the help of Watlow representatives, you can make sure your system is designed for success, efficiency and a long lifespan. What is the coefficient of thermal expansion? To understand the science behind the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), one must first understand the basics of thermal expansion. Physical property changes, such as shape, area, volume and density, occur during thermal expansion. Every material or metal/metal alloy will have a slightly different expansion rate. CTE, then, is the relative expansion or contraction of materials driven by a change in temperature. Metals, ceramics and other materials have unique coefficients of thermal expansion and do not expand and contract at equal rates. For example, if the volume of a section of aluminum and a section of ceramic are equal and are heated from X to Y degrees, the aluminum could increase in dimension by a factor of four compared to the ceramic.

  • Ch. 3. the Third Law of Thermodynamics (Pdf)
    3-1 CHAPTER 3 THE THIRD LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS1 In sharp contrast to the first two laws, the third law of thermodynamics can be characterized by diverse expression2, disputed descent, and questioned authority.3 Since first advanced by Nernst4 in 1906 as the Heat Theorem, its thermodynamic status has been controversial; its usefulness, however, is unquestioned. 3.1 THE HEAT THEOREM The Heat Theorem was first proposed as an empirical generalization based on the temperature dependence of the internal energy change, ∆U, and the Helmholtz free energy change, ∆A, for chemical reactions involving condensed phases. As the absolute temperature, T, approaches zero, ∆U and ∆A by definition become equal, but The Heat Theorem stated that d∆U/dT and d∆A/dT also approach zero. These derivatives are ∆Cv and -∆S respectively. The statement that ∆Cv equals zero would attract little attention today in view of the abundance of experimental and theoretical evidence showing that the heat capacities of condensed phases approach zero as zero absolute temperature is approached. However, even today the controversial and enigmatic aspect of The Heat Theorem is the equivalent statement 1 Most of this chapter is taken from B.G. Kyle, Chem. Eng. Ed., 28(3), 176 (1994). 2 For a sampling of expressions see E. M. Loebl, J. Chem. Educ., 37, 361 (1960). 3 For extreme positions see E. D. Eastman, Chem. Rev., 18, 257 (1936). 4 All of Nernst's work in this area is covered in W.

  • Chapter 3 3.4-2 the Compressibility Factor Equation of State
    Chapter 3 3.4-2 The Compressibility Factor Equation of State The dimensionless compressibility factor, Z, for a gaseous species is defined as the ratio pv Z = (3.4-1) RT If the gas behaves ideally Z = 1. The extent to which Z differs from 1 is a measure of the extent to which the gas is behaving nonideally. The compressibility can be determined from experimental data where Z is plotted versus a dimensionless reduced pressure pR and reduced temperature TR, defined as pR = p/pc and TR = T/Tc In these expressions, pc and Tc denote the critical pressure and temperature, respectively. A generalized compressibility chart of the form Z = f(pR, TR) is shown in Figure 3.4-1 for 10 different gases. The solid lines represent the best curves fitted to the data. Figure 3.4-1 Generalized compressibility chart for various gases10. It can be seen from Figure 3.4-1 that the value of Z tends to unity for all temperatures as pressure approach zero and Z also approaches unity for all pressure at very high temperature. If the p, v, and T data are available in table format or computer software then you should not use the generalized compressibility chart to evaluate p, v, and T since using Z is just another approximation to the real data. 10 Moran, M.
