Volumetric Thermal Expansion
delta_V = beta_v·V·ΔT
What it says
How much a volume grows when heated.
Symbols
| Symbol | Quantity | Dimension |
|---|---|---|
delta_V | Volume change (m^3) | L^3 |
beta_v | Volume expansion coefficient (1/K) | Θ^-1 |
V | Original volume (m^3) | L^3 |
ΔT | Temperature change (K) | Θ |
Work it out
Enter what you know. No account needed.
Fill in all but one: beta_v, V, ΔT, delta_V are all empty.
