Unrestrained Pipe Expansion
Unrestrained Pipe Expansion formula
| \(\large{ l_{ur} = \frac { \Delta l } { \alpha \; \Delta T } }\) |
Where:
\(\large{ l_{ur} }\) = unrestrained pipe length
\(\large{ \Delta l }\) = pipe length change due to temperature change
\(\large{ \alpha }\) (Greel symbol alpha) = thermal expansion coefficient
\(\large{ \Delta T }\) = temperature differential
