    Thermal Expansion

    • 3 Pages

    Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change intemperature.[1] All materials have this tendency. When a substance is heated‚ its particles begin moving more and thus usually maintain a greater average separation. Materials which contract with increasing temperature are rare; this effect is limited in size‚ and only occurs within limited temperature ranges. The degree of expansion divided by the change in temperature is called the material’s coefficient

    Experiment 1: Thermal Linear Expansion Abstract: The thermal linear expansion of copper and aluminum is the focus of this experiment where the two metals have a tendency to expand their length in response to the change of temperature. Each metals have their own coefficient of linear expansion which describes how the size of an object changes with a change in temperature while the pressure is held constant. We ’re able to determine the theoretical coefficient of linear expansion of the two metals by substituting

    Page 1 of 4 Expansion Devices I. Introduction Expansion devices are basic components of a refrigeration system which carry out two major purposes: (1) the pressure reduction from the condenser to evaporator pressure and (2) the regulation of refrigerant flow into the evaporator. These expansion devices can be generally classified into two types which are namely the fixed opening type (flow area is fixed) and the variable opening type (flow area changes correspondingly with a change in mass
