Gay–Lussac Number

The Gay­Lussac number characterizes the relative thermal volume expansion of substances.

The Gay\[Hyphen]Lussac number equals the reciprocal of the product of the coefficient of thermal expansion and the temperature difference.

Formula

QuantityVariable["Ga", "GayLussacNumber"] == 1/(QuantityVariable["α", "ThermalExpansionCoefficient"]*QuantityVariable["Δ​T", "TemperatureDifference"])

symbol description physical quantity
Ga Gay­Lussac number "GayLussacNumber"
