How does Galileo Thermometer & Storm Glass UK Works

Galileo Thermometer and Storm Glass UK. But still, most people are in the category who are buying the storm glass Uk just because of their good looking features. Yes, it is one of the main features but there are many more that are left out there. Knowledge is the main thing which drives craziness among youngsters. People are trying to understand how it actually works but most of them are fail to understand this. So, why don't we make it easy for you so you can understand the combination of beauty and science.

Based on a thermoscope invented by Galileo Galilei in the early 1600s, the thermometer on your co-worker's desk is called a Galileo thermometer. A simple, fairly accurate thermometer, today it is mostly used as decoration. The Galileo thermometer consists of a sealed glass tube that is filled with water and several floating bubbles. The bubbles are glass spheres filled with a colored liquid mixture. This liquid mixture may contain alcohol, or it might simply be water with food coloring.

Attached to each bubble is a little metal tag that indicates a temperature. A number and degree symbol is engraved in the tag. These metal tags are actually calibrated counterweights. The weight of each tag is slightly different from the others. Since the bubbles are all hand-blown glass, they aren't exactly the same size and shape. The bubbles are calibrated by adding a certain amount of fluid to them so that they have the exact same density. So, after the weighted tags are attached to the bubbles, each differs very slightly in density (the ratio of mass to volume) from the other bubbles, and the density of all of them is very close to the density of the surrounding water.
