Linear, volumetric and area thermal expansion are known and measured for materials.
- Thermal expansion is the dimension modification of a material under heating. - Linear, volumetric and area thermal expansion are known and measured for materials.
Linear expansion apparatus is the apparatus used to measure the objects to these following properties: -> coefficient linear expansion -> coefficient thermal expansion -> specific gravity -> specific heat -> thermal conductivity -> thermal resistivity -> breaking strength and many others..
Thermal Expansion. Each liquid or pure solid has a specific thermal of expansion. The thermal expansion of a substance is not linear, though for most of the temperatures we encounter in normal life, it is close enough to linear to be able to use a linear definition called the "Coefficient of Thermal Expansion".

Since most metals are isotropic, the cubical coefficient of expansion is three times the linear coefficient of expansion. The linear coefficient of expansion is obtained from measurement and tables for the specific material which are readily available.
Thermal expanasion coefficient fro monel is 0,0000075 m/mºC. More info at http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/linear-expansion-coefficients-d_95.html
The thermal expansion of mercury is proportional and linear to temperature.
heat strain or the thermal strain is caused due to the temperature changes. A solid body expands as the temperature increases and contracts as the temperature decreases.this causes the thermal strain. for a homogeneous and isotropic body the thermal strain is caused by change in temperature. thermal strain = coefficient of linear thermal expansion * change in temperature where the coefficient of linear thermal expansion gives the strain per degree of temperature.
The relationship between density and temperature is linear. In a thermal expansion, density will decrease and temperature increases and vice versa.
