  2. Negative temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_temperature

    Infinite temperature (coldness zero) is shown at the top of the diagram; positive values of coldness/temperature are on the right-hand side, negative values on the left-hand side. Certain systems can achieve negative thermodynamic temperature ; that is, their temperature can be expressed as a negative quantity on the Kelvin or Rankine scales.

  3. Ellingham diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellingham_diagram

    The formation free energy of carbon dioxide (CO 2) is almost independent of temperature, while that of carbon monoxide (CO) has negative slope and crosses the CO 2 line near 700 °C. According to the Boudouard reaction , carbon monoxide is the dominant oxide of carbon at higher temperatures (above about 700 °C), and the higher the temperature ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Negative_Feedback...

    When the body temperature is too high or too low, the blood vessels will change size accordingly to bring the body’s temperature back to normal. In this diagram, the tube-shaped objects represent blood vessels and the red and blue objects represent thermometers. The middle blood vessel is sized for a blood vessel at normal body temperature.

  5. Thermodynamic beta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_beta

    SI temperature/coldness conversion scale: Temperatures in Kelvin scale are shown in blue (Celsius scale in green, Fahrenheit scale in red), coldness values in gigabyte per nanojoule are shown in black. Infinite temperature (coldness zero) is shown at the top of the diagram; positive values of coldness/temperature are on the right-hand side ...

  6. Thermodynamic diagrams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_diagrams

    Thermodynamic diagrams are diagrams used to represent the thermodynamic states of a material (typically fluid) and the consequences of manipulating this material. For instance, a temperature– entropy diagram ( T–s diagram ) may be used to demonstrate the behavior of a fluid as it is changed by a compressor.

  7. Kelvin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin

    To explain this definition, consider a reversible Carnot cycle engine, where is the amount of heat energy transferred into the system, is the heat leaving the system, is the work done by the system (), is the temperature of the hot reservoir in Celsius, and is the temperature of the cold reservoir in Celsius.

  8. Temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature

    Such negative temperatures are hotter than any positive temperature. Over time, when the subsystem is exposed to the rest of the body, which has a positive temperature, energy is transferred as heat from the negative temperature subsystem to the positive temperature system. [101] The kinetic theory temperature is not defined for such subsystems.

  9. Thermodynamic temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_temperature

    Thermodynamic temperature is a quantity defined in thermodynamics as distinct from kinetic theory or statistical mechanics.. Historically, thermodynamic temperature was defined by Lord Kelvin in terms of a macroscopic relation between thermodynamic work and heat transfer as defined in thermodynamics, but the kelvin was redefined by international agreement in 2019 in terms of phenomena that are ...
