coefficient of. expansion

The seal and the glass must have the same coefficient of expansion.

Has a large coefficient of expansion for even small heat leaks.

"If you mix two glasses with the same coefficient of expansion, they will fuse," she explained.

Lead materials must be chosen with a thermal coefficient of expansion to match the package material.

The metal has a high coefficient of expansion, and the ball joints squeal, freeze.

I do not know the numbers right off, but I am sure the coefficient of expansion of the two metals is different.

Diamond is preferred because it has greater heat conduction and still has a low coefficient of expansion.

The strongest sight glasses are made with borosilicate glass, because of the greater difference in its coefficient of expansion.

Tables showing the coefficients of expansion, the percentages by which various solids increase in length, area, and volume, have been prepared for engineers.

Lower coefficient of expansion for copper: aluminium will creep and move approximately 33% more than copper.

The coefficient of expansion shows a pronounced peak, similar to that observed experimentally and often confused with a first-order transition.

The two sides have a different coefficient of expansion, either with respect to the temperature, or with respect to the moisture content.

In 1902, his PhD thesis measured the coefficient of expansion of quartz.

If linear coefficients of expansion of a metal is to be measured, hot water will running through a pipe made from the metal.

The thermal coefficient of expansion of the glass material and metal parts must be similar to prevent breaking the glass-to-metal seal.

Aluminum wire used before the mid-1970s has a coefficient of expansion that varies significantly from the metals common in devices, outlets, switches, and screws.

If the inner material's coefficient of expansion is slightly less, the seal will tighten as it cools, which is often beneficial.

'You as a scientist know that you start an experiment to find a coefficient of expansion and end up with control of the world.'

Both of these have large temperature coefficients of expansion and do not freeze or boil in the temperature range of interest.

The coefficient of expansion relates the change in volume, area, or length to a change in temperature of one degree Celsius.

The two main reasons were improper installation and the differences in the coefficient of expansion between aluminum wire used in the 1960s and the terminations.

These would appear to make a more reliable connection than wire nut-type connectors with aluminum wire due to its higher coefficient of expansion.

The precise mixture governs the various physical and optical properties (index of refraction, coefficient of expansion, melting point, etc.).

Extrinsic stress is the least insidious and is brought on by differences in thermal coefficient of expansion between the deposit and the substrate.

Temperature cycling can cause mechanical stress, particularly in composite systems consisting of materials with widely differing temperature coefficients of expansion.
