4E30.00Constant Volume
4E30.10constant volume bulbPIRA 200Immersed a bulb with an absolute pressure gauge in boiling water, ice water, and liquid nitrogen.
4E30.10constant volume bulb4E30.10A bulb with an absolute pressure gauge is immersed in boiling water, ice water, and liquid nitrogen.
4E30.10constant volume thermometerHa-4Immerse a tank bulb with an attached pressure gauge in various temperature water baths.
4E30.10constant volume bulb - He25-2.7A Bourdon pressure gauge is attached to a toilet-tank bulb filled with helium and immersed in boiling water, dry ice, and liquid nitrogen.
4E30.10pressure vs. temperatureDisc 16-02A constant volume sphere with a pressure gauge is shown at room temperature and immersed in ice water and boiling water baths.
4E30.11gas thermometerHa-2A bulb is connected to a mercury manometer.
4E30.12constant volume bulb25-2.6Capillary tubes containing mercury pistons are attached to toilet-tank bulbs filled with different gasses.
4E30.20constant volume thermometerPIRA 1000
4E30.20constant volume thermometerHa-3A bulb is connected to a mercury manometer that can be raised or lowered to keep the mercury on the bulb side at the same place.
4E30.21constant volume air thermometerH-5Looks like the Boyle's law apparatus except the enclosed end has a small flask suitable for immersing in a cold water bath. Adjustments are used to keep the volume constant.
4E30.30light bulb pressure16-2.9Heat a light bulb locally and the glass is pushed in, then heat it while on and the glass is pushed out.
4E30.40heat generated by sparkE-54The increased pressure of air in an enclosed container heated by sparking is measured with a manometer.
