Elongation in Pipes given Change in Temperature Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Elongation = Original Length*Thermal Expansion Coefficient*Change in Temperature
∆ = L₀*α*∆T
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Elongation - (Measured in Meter) - The Elongation is change in length due to subjected load.
Original Length - (Measured in Meter) - Original Length before the application of load.
Thermal Expansion Coefficient - (Measured in 1 Per Kelvin) - Thermal Expansion Coefficient is a material property that is indicative of the extent to which a material expands upon heating.
Change in Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - The Change in Temperature is the difference between the initial and final temperature.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Original Length: 5000 Millimeter --> 5 Meter (Check conversion here)
Thermal Expansion Coefficient: 1.5E-06 1 Per Kelvin --> 1.5E-06 1 Per Kelvin No Conversion Required
Change in Temperature: 50 Kelvin --> 50 Kelvin No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

∆ = L₀*α*∆T --> 5*1.5E-06*50

Evaluating ... ...

∆ = 0.000375

< Pressure Due to External Loads Calculators

External Diameter of Pipe given Load Per Unit Length for Pipes

Go External diameter = sqrt(Load per unit Length/(Pipe coefficient*Specific Weight of Fill))

Pipe Coefficient given Load Per Unit Length for Pipes

Go Pipe coefficient = (Load per unit Length/(Specific Weight of Fill*(External diameter)^2))

Specific Weight of Fill Material given Load Per Unit Length for Pipes

Go Specific Weight of Fill = Load per unit Length/(Pipe coefficient*(External diameter)^2)

Load Per Unit Length for Pipes Resting on Undisturbed Ground on Cohesion Less Soil

Go Load per unit Length = Pipe coefficient*Specific Weight of Fill*(External diameter)^2

Elongation in Pipes given Change in Temperature Formula

Elongation = Original Length*Thermal Expansion Coefficient*Change in Temperature
