Pycnometer volume correction

Input(s)

\(V_{k}\): Calibration Volume of Specific Gravity bottle (Pycnometer) \(\left(\mathrm{mL}\right.\) or \(\left.\mathrm{cm}^{3}\right)\)

\(T_{t}\): Test Temperature \(\left({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)\)

\(T_{k}\): Calibration Temperature \(\left({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)\)

\(\Omega\): Material Constant (for Ordinary Glass \(=0.276 \cdot 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) )

\(\Omega\): Material Constant (for Pyrex Glass \(=0.156 \cdot 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) )

Output(s)

\(V_{g}\): Real Volume of Specific Gravity bottle (Pycnometer) \(\left(\mathrm{mL}\right.\) or \(\left.\mathrm{cm}^{3}\right)\)
