osurewhose temperature can be maintainedat any point from 0° to 100°. Firstlet the enclosure be filled with meltingice, and, the vessel C and tube F nowcontaining dry gas, the surfaces ofthe mercury in A, B, G are adjustedto the same level. The temperatureis then raised to /°, the gas expands,and… … Fig. 327 A have been previously calibrated, so that their capacities per millimetre oflength are known in terms of the capacity of the bulb C. Thus the increaseof volume is measured corresponding to a given rise of temperature atconstant pressure, and the coefficient of expansion is obtained from…
