Hi:

Does anyone know if Caesar 5.10 gives the thermal expansion/inch data based on the temperatures and materials specified. I have used AutoPipe in the past and it quickly gives the thermal expansion/inch for calculating the thermal growth.

Thanks

See attached image.


Alternatively, you can go to
Tools>Material database>

Another alternate is to activate
Environment>Special execution paramters>print alphas

thanks! just to confirm this is expansion in inches per inch of pipe right ?

Maybe, the units depend on the input. They are however "length/length".
