Thermal Stress Calculator
Calculate thermal stress, strain, and elongation for a constrained material under temperature change.
How to Use the Thermal Stress Calculator
- Enter elastic modulus in GPa.
- Enter coefficient of thermal expansion in μ/°C.
- Enter the temperature change in °C.
- Enter constraint factor (1 = fully constrained).
Casos de Uso
- •Pipeline thermal expansion design
- •Structural engineering
- •HVAC ductwork analysis
Fórmula
σ = E × α × ΔT × constraint_factor
