Thermal Expansion : When an object is heated or cooled, its length changes by an amount
proportional to the original length and the change in temperature.
The temperature expansion of pipes depends on the start and final temperature
of the pipe and the expansion coefficient of the piping material at the actual
temperature.

Lo length of pipe mm
Li length of pipe mm
dt temperature difference oC Gas Temp - Amb. Temp.
α linear expansion coefficient mm/mm.oC 1.2E-05 For Steel

DA Axial Expansion Value mm 0
