What is the Coefficient of thermal expansion of 15-5PH stainless steel?

6.3 in/in.°F or 11.3 µm/m.°K


How does steel expand on supplying power to it?

As current passes through steel, it heats up from resistive heating. As it heats up, it expands. A typical coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is 13x10-6 m/m K but the exact coefficient of thermal expansion of steel depends on the type of steel. For example:Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion for:(10-6 m/m K)(10-6 in/in oF)Steel13.07.3Steel Stainless Austenitic (304)17.39.6Steel Stainless Austenitic (310)14.48.0Steel Stainless Austenitic (316)16.08.9Steel Stainless Ferritic (410)9.95.5


What is the thermal expansion coefficient for steel c 15?

thermal expansion depends on Temperature and material of steel


Why is stainless steel more likely to suffer from distortion than carbon steels?

high thermal expansion


How does thermal expansion of steel compare to aluminum?

Aluminum is higher expansion - about 23 ppm/C, whereas steels range from 12ppm/C for alloy steel and carbon steel, 17 ppm/C for stainless 300 austenitic series, and 11 ppm/C for stainless 400 martensitic series

Is stainless steel has thermal property?

All matter has thermal properties, so yes.


Is stainless steel a good thermal conductor?

Stainless steel is a poor thermal conductor. It doesn't conduct electricity well, and things that do not do this well do not usually conduct heat well either.


How can you Calculate the change in length of a steel bridge girder that will be exposed to a temperature change?

Use the coefficient of thermal expansion. This is a measure of how much a unit length of steel would expand per each unit increase in temperature. There are different kinds of steel so you may need to know its composition.

How do you calculate coefficient of linear expansion of copper?

dL/dT = αL*L, where L is the length of the steel, T is temperature, and αL is the linear thermal expansion coefficient which for steel is about 11.0 to 13.0. That is possibly the easiest differential equation in history: (1/L)dL = (αL)dT ln(L) = αLT L = eαLT
