Functions
int	zsl_phy_thermo_fahren_cels (zsl_real_t t1, zsl_real_t *t2, bool ctf)
	If 'ctf' is set to true, this function transforms the celcius input temperature into fahrenheit. If 'ctf' is set to false, this function transforms the fahrenheit input temperature into celcius. More...
int	zsl_phy_thermo_cels_kel (zsl_real_t t1, zsl_real_t *t2, bool ktc)
	If 'ktc' is set to true, this function transforms the kelvin input temperature into celcius. If 'ktc' is set to false, this function transforms the celcius input temperature into kelvin. More...
int	zsl_phy_thermo_heat_fusion (zsl_real_t m, zsl_real_t lh, zsl_real_t *q)
	Calculates the necessary heat to melt a material based on its latent heat (lh) and mass (m). More...
int	zsl_phy_thermo_heat (zsl_real_t m, zsl_real_t sh, zsl_real_t t, zsl_real_t *q)
	Calculates the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a material. More...
int	zsl_phy_thermo_expan (zsl_real_t l0, zsl_real_t a, zsl_real_t t, zsl_real_t *l)
	Calculates the final length of an object under heat expansion based on its initial length, its linear thermal expansion coeffitient and the difference in temperature. More...
int	zsl_phy_thermo_mean_free_path (zsl_real_t nv, zsl_real_t d, zsl_real_t *lambda)
	Calculates the average distance between the collisions of molecules in a gas based on the number of particles per unit volume and the diameter of the gas molecules. More...
int	zsl_phy_thermo_effic_heat_engine (zsl_real_t qc, zsl_real_t qh, zsl_real_t *e)
	Calculates the efficiency of a heat engine based on the energy of the cold (qc) and the hot (qh) chambers. More...
int	zsl_phy_thermo_carnot_engine (zsl_real_t tc, zsl_real_t qc, zsl_real_t th, zsl_real_t *qh)
	Calculates the energy of the hot chamber of a Carnot engine when the energy of the cold chamber and the temperatures in both chambers are known values. More...
