    Got one of those. Hottest is over 30C, lowest I think 16C, something like that. I like it, never had to change the batteries or update the cloud subscription. Works a treat.

    For me, the most peculiar thing is not the workings of the thermometer, but why people throw things like this away...😮

      Maybe in the office controlled climate, the thermometer never actually changed ... leaving it a bit static. Much better to have it at home where the temperature can vary quite a bit (at least in my home it does).

    The actual temperature is read from the lowest floating vial. Curiously, mine is spot on with a type K thermocouple. And 24C in the lab as perfect for labbing. Good on ya Dave!

    • @EEVblog2
      @EEVblog2  5 місяців тому +2

      No, the current temperature will be indicated by the bulb that is right in the middle. If 22C is at the bottom then the temp is above 22C. In this case there is no bulb in the middle, so it's somewhere between 22C and 24C, but it's definitely not 22C (assuming absolute accuracy)

      27 °C would be better as it's the default SPICE temperature (300K) 😁

    The incredible handshake of science:
    Density: ρ = m/V, where p is the density, m is the mass and V is the volume.
    ...............................................................................
    Pressure: p= F/A, where: p is the pressure, F is the magnitude of the normal force, A is the area of the surface on contact.
    .......................................................................................................
    Temperature: the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object
    ................................................................................................................
    The Combined Gas Law shows that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to volume and directly proportional to temperature. Avogadro's Law shows that volume or pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas. Putting these together leaves us with the following equation:
    P1×V1T1×n1=P2×V2T2×n2

    As with the other gas laws, we can also say that (P×V)(T×n)
    is equal to a constant. The constant can be evaluated provided that the gas being described is considered to be ideal.
    The Ideal Gas Law is a single equation which relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of an ideal gas. If we substitute in the variable R
    for the constant, the equation becomes:
    P×VT×n=R

    The Ideal Gas Law is conveniently rearranged to look this way, with the multiplication signs omitted:
    PV=nRT
    ...............................................................................................................................
    p= ρgh, where:
    p is liquid pressure,
    g is gravity at the surface of overlaying material,
    ρ is density of liquid,
    h is height of liquid column or depth within a substance.
    Another way of saying the same formula is the following:
    p= weight density x depth
    ..............................................................................................
    We can calculate the heat released or absorbed using the specific heat capacity
    \[\text C\], the mass of the substance
    \[\text m\], and the change in temperature
    \[\Delta \text T\] in the following equation:
    \[\text q = \text{m} \times \text C \times \Delta \text T\]
    ...................................................
    0th Law of Thermodynamics
    The Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics states that if two systems are in thermodynamic equilibrium with a third system, the two original systems are in thermal equilibrium with each other. Basically, if system A is in thermal equilibrium with system C and system B is also in thermal equilibrium with system C, system A and system B are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
    1st Law of Thermodynamics
    The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy can be converted from one form to another with the interaction of heat, work and internal energy, but it cannot be created nor destroyed, under any circumstances.
    2nd Law of Thermodynamics
    The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that the state of entropy of the entire universe, as an isolated system, will always increase over time. The second law also states that the changes in the entropy in the universe can never be negative.
    3rd Law of Thermodynamics
    The 3rd law of thermodynamics will essentially allow us to quantify the absolute amplitude of entropies. It says that when we are considering a totally perfect (100% pure) crystalline structure, at absolute zero (0 Kelvin), it will have no entropy (S). Note that if the structure in question were not totally crystalline, then although it would only have an extremely small disorder (entropy) in space, we could not precisely say it had no entropy.
    .....................................................................................................
    Density
    The density of a liquid can be expressed as
    ρ = m / V (1)
    where
    ρ = density of liquid (kg/m 3 )
    m = mass of the liquid (kg)
    V = volume of the liquid (m 3 )
    The inverse of density is specific volume:
    v = 1 / ρ
    = V / m (2)
    where
    v = specific volume (m 3 /kg)
    Volume and change in Temperature
    When temperature increases - most liquids expands:
    dV = V 1 - V 0
    = V 0 β dt
    = V 0 β (t 1 - t 0 ) (3)
    where
    dV = V 1 - V 0 = change in volume - difference between final and initial volume (m 3 )
    β = volumetric temperature expansion coefficient (m 3 /m 3 o C)
    dt = t 1 - t 0 = change in temperature - difference between final and initial temperature ( o C)
    (3) can be modified to
    V 1 = V 0 (1 + β (t 1 - t 0 )) (3b)
    Density and change in Temperature
    With (1) and (3b) the final density after a temperature change can be expressed as
    ρ 1 = m / ( V 0 (1 + β (t 1 - t 0 ))) (4)
    where
    ρ 1 = final density (kg/m 3 )
    - or combined with (2)
    ρ 1 = ρ 0 / (1 + β (t 1 - t 0 )) (4b)
    where
    ρ 0 = initial density (kg/m 3 )
    Volumetric Temperature Coefficients - β
    water : 0.0002 (m 3 /m 3 o C) at 20 o C
    ethyl alcohol : 0.0011 (m 3 /m 3 o C)
    volumetric expansion coefficient for some commonly used materials
    Note! - volumetric temperature coefficients may vary strongly with temperature.
    Density and change in Pressure
    The influence of pressure on the volume of a liquid can be expressed with the three dimensional Hooke's law
    E = - dp / (dV / V 0 )
    = - (p 1 - p 0 ) / ((V 1 - V 0 ) / V 0 ) (5)
    where
    E = bulk modulus - liquid elasticity (N/m 2 )
    The minus sign corresponds to the fact that an increase in the pressure leads to a decrease in volume.
    With (5) - the final volume after pressure change can be expressed as
    V 1 = V 0 (1 - (p 1 - p 0 ) / E) (5b)
    Combining (5b) with (1) - the final density can be expressed as:
    ρ 1 = m / ( V 0 (1 - (p 1 - p 0 ) / E)) (6)
    - or combined with (2) - the final density can be expressed as
    ρ 1 = ρ 0 / (1 - (p 1 - p 0 ) / E) (6b)
