Length per Length per Degree Celsius

°C⁻¹

Definition

The length per length per degree Celsius (°C⁻¹) is a unit of thermal expansion coefficient equal to one kelvin. It represents the fractional change in length per unit temperature change in the Celsius scale, providing a practical measure for thermal expansion in everyday temperature measurements.

History/Origin

Developed as a practical unit for thermal expansion measurements using the Celsius temperature scale, this unit became widely adopted in engineering and scientific applications. It provides the same numerical value as the kelvin-based unit, making it convenient for temperature calculations in Celsius.

Current Use

Commonly used in engineering applications, materials testing, and construction where temperature measurements are made in Celsius. It is essential for designing thermal management systems, calculating expansion allowances, and predicting material behavior under temperature changes.

Length per Length per Degree Reaumur

°r⁻¹

Definition

The length per length per degree Reaumur (°r⁻¹) is a unit of thermal expansion coefficient equal to 0.8 per kelvin. It represents the fractional change in length per unit temperature change in the Reaumur scale, providing a historical measure for thermal expansion calculations.

History/Origin

Developed as part of the Reaumur temperature scale system, this unit was historically used in some European countries for thermal expansion measurements. It provides a different scale relationship compared to Celsius and Fahrenheit units, reflecting the unique characteristics of the Reaumur scale.

Current Use

Rarely used in modern applications but occasionally found in historical literature and specialized scientific contexts. It is mainly of historical interest and is sometimes used for temperature interval calculations involving historical data or legacy systems.
