Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ...equation of the vapour, after Callendar, in the form (see Art. 245) Re c 13--a =z---. p R9 and neglect the last term, since it is small for high temperatures, and 1 Phil. Mwj., 18S7. 8 Pogg. Ann. Bd. ciii. p. 185, 1858. if we put for v the specific volume v2 of the saturated vapour, and for a the specific volume i of the liquid (which is probably in most cases a fair approximation), we get R6 Combining this with the thermodynamic equation (5) of Art. 346, viz. we obtain dp _ L de 7Re= Assuming L constant as a first approximation, this equation gives, on integration, p L/l 1 which is Young's formula. A closer approximation is got by taking L to be a linear function of the temperature, as in Art. 197, and this leads to Kirchhoff's formula.1 1 The foregoing is from the article " Vaporisation," by H. L. Callendar, Eney. Brit. 10th ed. 1902. SECTION IV VAPOUR DENSITIES 213. Definition of Vapour Density.--The density of any substance generally means its weight per unit volume, taken at some standard pressure and temperature. The specific gravity of a substance, on the other hand, is expressed by the ratio of the weight of any volume of the substance to the weight, under given conditions, of an equal volume of some standard substance chosen for the sake of reference. The standard substance usually chosen is water, so that the specific gravity of a substance is the ratio of its density to that of water. Now if the weight of unit volume of the standard substance (water at 4 C.) be taken as the unit of weight, then the density of this substance will be unity, and the density of any other substance will be expressed by the same number as its specific gravity. This plan is adopted in the C. C4. S. system, in which the unit of weight (1...

Seller's Description:
Very Good. No Dust Jacket Present. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. First published in 1894, this book is the fourth edition from 1929 and edited by J. Rogerson Cotter, 836 pages. "Since the publication of the last edition of this treatise very few of the advances made in theoretical physics have been concerned with the subject of heat, except in the domain of quantum theory. In the preparation of this edition I have accordingly devoted my attention almost exclusively to an endeavour to bring the book up to date in the department of experimental determinations of thermal data. In order to obtain room for new additions I have omitted considerable portions of the last edition and condensed others. The omitted parts consist mainly of descriptions of experiments and discussions about disputed points which possess little interest at the presnt day." VERY GOOD HARDCOVER, green cloth covers, lettering is bright on the spine.
