Volumetric temperature expansion calculator. Water - Specific Volume vs. Temperature Online calculator, figures and tables showing Specific Volume of water at temperatures ranging from 0-370 °C and 32 - 700 °F - Imperial and IS Units.
Water does expand with increasing temperature (its density decreases) at temperatures greater than \(4^oC (40^oF)\). However, it is densest at \(+4^oC\) and expands with decreasing temperature between \(+4^oC\) and \(0^oC\) (\(40^oF \, to \, 32^oF\)), as shown in Figure \(\PageIndex{4}\).
To calculate the thermal stress in a rod whose ends are both fixed rigidly, we can think of the stress as developing in two steps. First, let the ends be free to expand (or contract) and find the expansion (or contraction).
Use the equation for linear thermal expansion (Equation \ref{linear}) to calculate the change in length, \(\Delta L\). Use the coefficient of linear expansion, \(\alpha\), for steel from Table \(\PageIndex{1}\), and note that the change in temperature, \(\Delta T\), is \(55^oC\).
10 wrz 2020 · For solids, the coefficient of linear expansion is usually the appropriate parameter; for liquids and gases the volume coefficient is usually appropriate. For most familiar common metals the coefficient of linear expansion is of order 10 −5 K −1.
