isothermal equilibrium"(Also called conductive equilibrium.) The state of a hypothetical atmosphere, at rest and uninfluenced by radiative heating or cooling, in which the conduction of heat from one part to another has, ...
Now a basis for the definition of temperature can be obtained from the so-called zeroth law of thermodynamics which states that if two systems, A and B, are in thermal equilibrium and a third system C is in thermal equilibrium with system A then ...
Bodies in thermal equilibrium with each other have the same temperature.
temperatures This has been used more commonly since about 1980 to refer to what various temperature and humidity combinations feel like based on human physiology and clothing science and the need for the body to maintain a thermal equilibrium.
