Matter is made up of atoms or molecules. These particles experience the effects of temperature in the form of agitation.

When temperature increases, most materials undergo an increase in their voume. This expansion, at the microscopic level, corresponds to a greater distance between the molecules. It is this increase in volume that we call expansion. Inversely, a decrease in temperature results in contraction. This property can be observed for all of the states of matter but it often isn't visible.

Click on the button labelled 'Molecules' to zoom in.

To illustrate a case of thermal expansion for each of the states of matter.

To approach the kinetic theory of heat (molecular thermal agitation).

A thermometer is a device used to measure temperature.
There are several types of thermometers, depending on how the temperature is measured.

Thermal Expansion: Uses the principle that the volume expands with increasing temperature. Mercury thermometer, alcohol thermometer, bimetal thermometer.

Thermocouple: Two metal wires of different types are joined together. Depending on the temperature difference, an electromotive force is generated in the metal wire, and current flows in the circuit. Measure the electromotive force and measure the temperature.

A material whose resistance varies with temperature: The resistance is measured to determine the temperature.

Measuring radiant energy: Every object emits different light (electromagnetic waves) depending on its temperature.

Bimetal

Bimetal is a combination of two metals with different degrees of thermal expansion, and when the temperature of the bimetal increases, it bends toward the smaller degree of thermal expansion.
Such bimetals keep the temperature constant by disconnecting or connecting the power in electric rice cookers and electric irons.

It is at the atomic level that we must seek the explanation of the thermal expansion of matter. The thermal energy contained in the atoms is expressed in the form of a vibration around their average position. This vibration depends on the temperature and the neighboring atoms. A variation in temperature has the effect of modifying the volume. This property applies to any type of material (solid, liquid, gas). It partly explains the rise of the sea level in the case of global warming, the flight of hot air balloons when heating the air they contain, and the inclination of the Eiffel tower several centimeters in the opposite direction of the Sun.

This property of the material is characterized by a coefficient of thermal expansion. The formula below corresponds to a linear expansion:

ΔL = α . L 0 . ΔT

ΔL the variation in length in meters (m);

α the coefficient of linear expansion (in K⁻¹ or in °C⁻¹);

L₀ the initial length in meters (m);

ΔT = T - T₀ the temperature variation (in K or in °C).

The difference in the coefficients of expansion of two metals explains that the bimetallic strip curves on the side where the coefficient of expansion is the smallest. This property is exploited in many devices like the thermosensitive switch (see animation fire alarm). This twisting is all the more important as the bimetallic strip is long. It is this amplification that is sought with a spiraled shaped bimetallic strip like those used in certain thermometers.

This phenomenon of thermal expansion is not very perceptible on small objects. However, it should be considered on large structures such as bridges, buildings, or even a large mass of air or water.

Drag and drop two plates on the scene to create a bimetallic strip.

To understand the functioning of a bimetallic strip and its applications.
