Thermodynamic or Temperature Scales

Science > Physics > Thermal Properties of Matter and Thermodynamics > Thermodynamic or Temperature Scales In last article, we have studied the concept of temperature. In this article, we shall discuss different thermodynamic or temperature scales. Temperature can be defined in several ways: It is measured in °C (centigrade or Celsius) or K (Kelvin). It […]

Introduction to Thermodynamics

Science > Physics > Themodynamics > Introduction In this article, we shall study the concept of thermodynamics and thermodynamic state. Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that deals with the inter-conversion between heat energy and any other form of energy. Thermodynamic State: The simplest example of a system to which thermodynamics can be applied is […]
