Class Temperature

java.lang.Object

manifold.science.api.AbstractMeasure<TemperatureUnit,Temperature>

manifold.science.measures.Temperature

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<Temperature>, Sequential<Temperature,Rational,TemperatureUnit>, ComparableUsing<Temperature>, Dimension<Temperature>

public final class Temperature
extends AbstractMeasure<TemperatureUnit,Temperature>

Models a measure of temperature in units of TemperatureUnit.

Use values of Temperature directly in arithmetic expressions with other dimensions such as:

   // commonly used unit abbreviations e.g., m, ft, hr, dC, etc.
   import static manifold.science.util.UnitConstants.*;
   // rational coercion
   import static manifold.science.util.CoercionConstants.r;
   ...
   Temperature body = 98.6 dF;
   Temperature quiteWarm = 98.6 dF + 5 dC;
   HeatCapacity kBoltzmann = 1.380649e-23r J/dK;

Method Detail

getBaseUnit

public TemperatureUnit getBaseUnit()

Description copied from class: AbstractMeasure

The unit on which all instances of this type are based. For instance, a Length dimension might use Meters as the base unit because it is the SI standard.

Specified by:

getBaseUnit in class AbstractMeasure<TemperatureUnit,Temperature>

make

public Temperature make(Rational value,
                        TemperatureUnit unit,
                        TemperatureUnit displayUnit)

Description copied from class: AbstractMeasure

Creates a new instance using the specified parameters.

Specified by:

make in class AbstractMeasure<TemperatureUnit,Temperature>

make

public Temperature make(Rational value,
                        TemperatureUnit unit)

Description copied from class: AbstractMeasure
