This increase of volume is called expansion
Thermal expansion is used in thermostats, or heat-regulating devices.
- Thermal expansion is the dimension modification of a material under heating. - Linear, volumetric and area thermal expansion are known and measured for materials.

The metal undergoes thermal expansion
Thermal expansion and contraction, specifically the different coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) between glass and metal....AND ITS LIKE A (CLOSED SYSTEM)

Yes as friend Des Dichado pointed out liquids do have thermal expansion.
A bridge must have expansion gaps or else they will waver when they expand in warm temperatures. This is thermal expansion
refractory metals have high melting points and are used in extremely hot environments; if expansion coefficient is lower this prevents high stresses that can develop due to thermal gradients during the high heat up. It helps to have high thermal conductivity as well
thermal expansion
Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature.
Linear, volumetric and area thermal expansion are known and measured for materials.
