Engineering ToolBox > Steel Pipes and Temperature Expansion

Temperature expansion of carbon steel pipes 

The maximum and minimum length of a pipe depends to the maximum and minimum temperature of the pipe - in cold (non operating) and running (operating) condition. The temperature expansion coefficient steel pipes per degree change of temperature is nearly constant:

• 6.5 (in/in^oF x 10^-6)
• 14.0 (m/m^oC x 10^-6)
