Water Density by Temperature
Water Density by Temperature Formula |
||
| \( \rho_w = \rho_{H2O} \;/\; 1 + a_v \; \left( T - T_0 \right) \) | ||
| Symbol | English | Metric |
| \( \rho_w \) (Greek symbol rho) = water density by temperature | \(lbm \;/\; ft^3\) | \(kg \;/\; m^3\) |
| \( \rho_{H2O} \) (Greek symbol rho) = normal density of water | \(lbm \;/\; ft^3\) | \(kg \;/\; m^3\) |
| \( T \) = temperature of water | \( F \) | \( F \) |
| \( T_0 \) = normal temperature of water | \( F \) | \( F \) |
| \( \alpha_v \) (Greek symbol alpha) = volumetric thermal expansion coefficient (0.0002) | \(in^3 \;/\; in^3\;F\) | \(mm^3 \;/\; mm^3\;C\) |
