ताप विस्तार (Thermal Expansion Meaning in Hindi)

Thermal expansion is the change in the volume of a constant mass (e.g. of oceanic water) as a result of a change in its temperature. In the sea, a temperature increase produces an increase in the volume of water (also called dilation or dilatation) and thus a rise in sea levels if the oceanic mass remains unchanged.
