temperature rate
1Temperature measurement — using modern scientific thermometers and temperature scales goes back at least as far as the early 18th century, when Gabriel Fahrenheit adapted a thermometer (switching to mercury) and a scale both developed by Ole Christensen Røemer. Fahrenheit …
2Rate of solution — is how fast a substance dissolves in a solution.Factors determining the rate of solution are:; Surface Area: When a solute dissolves, only the surface of the solute comes in contact with the solvent. Therefore, the more the surface area of the… …
3temperature gradient — n. the rate of temperature change, esp. with increase in altitude …
4Temperature — This article is about the thermodynamic property. For other uses, see Temperature (disambiguation). A map of global long term monthly average surface air temperatures i …
5temperature gradient — noun change in temperature as a function of distance (especially altitude) (Freq. 3) • Hypernyms: ↑gradient * * * noun : the rate of change of temperature with displacement in a given direction (as with increase of height) compare lapse rate * *… …
6Temperature gradient — In atmospheric sciences (meteorology, climatology and related fields), the temperature gradient (typically of air, more generally of any fluid) is a physical quantity that describes in which direction and at what rate the temperature changes the… …
7rate-of-temperature indicator — A type of fire warning system that uses a series of thermocouples to sense the rate of change of temperature rise. Any increase in temperature whose rate of change is higher than specified makes current flow into the system, which appears as a… …
8temperature coefficient — noun : a numerical value indicating the relation between a change in temperature and a simultaneous change in some other property (as solubility); specifically : the factor α in the equation Rt.Ro(1+αt) in which Rt equals the resistance of a… …
9Temperature coefficient — The temperature coefficient is the relative change of a physical property when the temperature is changed by 1 K. In the following formula, let R be the physical property to be measured and T be the temperature at which the property is… …
10Temperature record of the past 1000 years — The temperature record of the past 1,000 years describes the reconstruction of temperature for the last 1000 years on the Northern Hemisphere. A reconstruction is needed because a reliable surface temperature record exists only since about 1850.… …
