In physics and thermodynamics, temperature is a physical property of a system that underlies the common notions of hot and cold; something that is hotter generally has the greater temperature. Specifically, temperature is a property of matter. Temperature is one of the principal parameters of thermodynamics. On the microscopic scale, temperature is defined as the average energy of microscopic motions of a single particle in the system per degree of freedom. On the macroscopic scale, temperature is the unique physical property that determines the direction of heat flow between two objects placed in thermal contact. If no heat flow occurs, the two objects have the same temperature; otherwise heat flows from the hotter object to the colder object. These two basic principles are stated in the zeroth law and second law of thermodynamics, respectively. For a solid, these microscopic motions are principally the vibrations of its atoms about their sites in the solid. For an ideal monatomic gas, the microscopic motions are the translational motions of the constituent gas particles. For a multiatomic gas, vibrational and rotational motion should be included

Temperature is measured with thermometers that may be calibrated to a variety of temperature scales. In most of the world (except for the United States, and a few other countries[which?]), the degree Celsius scale is used for most temperature measuring purposes. The entire scientific world (the U.S. included) measures temperature using the Celsius scale and thermodynamic temperature using the kelvin scale, which is just the Celsius scale shifted downwards so that 0 K[1]= -273.15 °C, or absolute zero. Many engineering fields in the U.S., especially high-tech ones, also use the kelvin and degrees Celsius scales. However, the United States is the last major country[citation needed] in which the degree Fahrenheit temperature scale is used by most lay people, industry, popular meteorology, and government. Other engineering fields in the U.S. also rely upon the Rankine scale (a shifted Fahrenheit scale) when working in thermodynamic-related disciplines such as combustion.

Intuitively, temperature is the measurement of how hot or cold something is, although the most immediate way in which we can measure this, by feeling it, is unreliable, resulting in the phenomenon of felt air temperature, which can differ at varying degrees from actual temperature. On the molecular level, temperature is the result of the motion of particles which make up a substance. Temperature increases as the energy of this motion increases. The motion may be the translational motion of the particle, or the internal energy of the particle due to molecular vibration or the excitation of an electron energy level. Although very specialized laboratory equipment is required to directly detect the translational thermal motions, thermal collisions by atoms or molecules with small particles suspended in a fluid produces Brownian motion that can be seen with an ordinary microscope. The thermal motions of atoms are very fast and temperatures close to absolute zero are required to directly observe them. For instance, when scientists at the NIST achieved a record-setting cold temperature of 700 nK (1 nK = 10-9 K) in 1994, they used optical lattice laser equipment to adiabatically cool caesium atoms. They then turned off the entrapment lasers and directly measured atom velocities of 7 mm per second in order to calculate their temperature.

The process of cooling involves removing energy from a system. When there is no more energy able to be removed, the system is said to be at absolute zero, which is the point on the thermodynamic (absolute) temperature scale where all kinetic motion in the particles comprising matter ceases and they are at complete rest in the “classic” (non-quantum mechanical) sense. By definition, absolute zero is a temperature of precisely 0&_160;kelvins (-273.15 °C or -459.68 °F).

4. All About Thermostats
November 18, 2008

A thermostat is a device that allows you to control the temperature inside of your home by controlling how your heating or cooling system functions. Heating devices are turned on when temperatures fall below a certain temperature and are turned off when the temperatures rise above another temperature. These two temperatures are separated so that the device is not being turned on or off too rapidly and are usually set within a couple of degrees from the desired temperature (or set point). More advanced thermostats can also control cooling devices so that a room can cool down faster and the air ... (read more)

5. Extending the Life of your Grand Piano
November 18, 2008

On average, the lifespan of a piano is 50 years, but the way you care for yours will determine how long it will create beautiful music. When deciding where to put your musical instrument, consider the following factors: temperature, humidity, and position. Avoid extreme temperatures in the room where it is located. The ideal temperature range is 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, take special heed to the humidity of the room. The ideal level is 45-60% relative humidity, but more important than the actual level is the consistency. During the day, central air systems dry the air and draw ... (read more)

19. Getting Air Conditioning In Florida
November 05, 2008

Properly intended air conditioning systems are really important, especially in the south where we are dealing with recurrent high temperatures and high dampness. The sizing (tonnage) of the, a/c units is grave. If there is too much tonnage, the window gets cooled down too swiftly and does not allow the humidity to be fraught from the air. Likewise, if the units are undersized, the units will constantly be running (not being energy helpful) in an work to cool the interval. The old govern of thumb for estimating the magnitude of the air conditioning systems for a home was one ton for every 500 s... (read more)

25. Guide to Hua Hin, Thailand
November 03, 2008

Hua Hin In the early 1920s King Prajadhipok decided to build a summer retreat from Bangkok’s politics and from its soaring pre-monsoon temperatures and high humidity. He chose to build his new palace near the tranquil fishing village of Hua Hin, and the place hasn’t looked back since. He named it ‘Klai Kangwon’, which means ‘Far from Worries’, a name that could not have been more inappropriate as, whilst on holiday here in 1932, he was toppled from power in a typically-Thai bloodless coup that replaced nearly 700 years of absolute monarchy with a constitutional one. Over the following yea... (read more)
