Thermal Expansion and Pressure Coefficients
Thermal Expansion and Pressure Coefficients
quantities that characterize the change in volume V or pressure ρ in the equation of state of a thermodynamic system as a function of pressure ρ or temperature T in a given thermodynamic process. Examples of such coefficients include the isothermal compression coefficient, or isothermal compressibility
the adiabatic compression coefficient, or adiabatic compressibility
the isochoric thermal pressure coefficient
and the isobaric thermal expansion coefficient
