variation of the electrical properties of the water liquids is investigated.
Variation of the reactance capacitance parameter of liquids with temperature
in the range of 17-60 °C is measured for the plain water and water
mixtures. The temperature variations of the capacitance for the cool distilled
and tap water samples are studied for the range of 17-29 °C obtained.
Present results indicate an averaged variation of 4.69 μF/ °C
for the distilled water and 3.24 μF/ °C for tap water in warm
up process to a near room temperature. The cooling behaviors for the warm
mineral, tap and salt water liquids are also investigated in this study.
Average variations of 0.54 μF/ °C for the mineral water, 0.76
μF/ °C for the tap water and 1.44 μF/ °C for the dilute
salt water are obtained for the high temperature range. In comparing the
results for different liquids, dilute salt water shows a factor of 2.6
increase in measured capacitance in comparison with the mineral water
when temperature drops from 60.0 to 35.0 °C. Hence the reported cell
probe provides a relatively accurate method to determine the temperature
dependence of reactive capacitance for the pure liquids and also liquids
with a trace impurity.]]>Ahn, H.J., I.H. Kim and D.C. Han,200516699706Ashrafi, A. and H. Golnabi,19997034833487Golnabi, H.,19976816131617Golnabi, H.,200072531Golnabi, H. and P.
