Sources for resistivity of W depending on temperature

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around finding accurate temperature-resistivity data for Tungsten between 300 and 2500 K for an experiment involving a W bulb. The CRC handbook's tables are deemed insufficient due to limited data points and poor correlation across editions. A user suggests a link to a relevant paper that may contain the needed information. The request for assistance highlights the importance of precise data for experimental accuracy. Accessing reliable resources is crucial for successful experimentation in this temperature range.

Hello everyone

I am trying to do an experiment involving a W bulb, in which I am completely dependent of knowing the temperature-resistivity relation of Tungsten in the temperature range 300 - 2500 K. The CRC handbook has some tables, but they have few data points and correlate poorly with each other (in different editions). Does anyone here know where else I can find a good table (or formula, although a linear relation is not precise enough)?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thread 'Basic thermal energy transfer physics: Insulation value in open airways vs sealed airways'

Been around 40 years since I took basic physics in college and while I remember doing some examples of insulation values / energy conduction, I doubt I could to the math now even if I could find the formulas. I have some some corrugated plastic sheet (think of the plastic signs you see on the side of the road) that is used in bee hives. Also have some used in a green house though a bit different in dimensions than this example but the general approach should still apply. Typically, both...

Thread 'Using battery energy to heat a battery…'

Problem: You’re an Uber driver with a Tesla Model 3. Today’s low: 30F, high: 65F. You want to reach a USD$ profit target in the least number of hours, but your choices could have added cost. Do you preheat the battery only when you are headed to the charging station (to increase the charging rate by warming the battery — however the battery might not be “warm enough” when your reach the charger and thus slower charging rates), or do you always “navigate to the charger” the entire day (which...

Thread 'Is Callen right in claiming dQ=TdS for all quasi-static processes?'

Hello! I am currently reading the second edition of Callen's Thermodynamics and an Introduction to Thermostatistics, and I have a question regarding Callen's definition of quasi-static. On page 96, Callen says: Another way of characterizing Callen's definition is that a process is quasi-static if it traces out a continuous curve in the system's configuration space. So far it's all well and good. A little later, Callen claims that the identification of $$TdS$$ as the heat transfer is only...
