Functions
7.8 Setting Thermal Coefficient and Modulus of Elasticity
The default value for each of these new parameters is 0.0. A value of zero effectively
disables the pressure and temperature pipe volume compensation routine. When entering a
value for the thermal expansion coefficient and modulus of elasticity, keep in mind that the
numeric entry already includes an exponent multiplier. For the Thermal Expansion
Coefficient the multiplier is 10
Typical values for each parameter are shown below:
Mild Carbon Steel
304 Stainless
316 Stainless
Note
Do not enter exponents of above values.
[ThermExp Coef 1/F]
Use this menu cell to set the Thermal Expansion Coefficient.
Entering the Thermal Expansion Coefficient value:
1. In the [Pipe Data] menu, scroll down to highlight [ThermExp Coef 1/F].
2. To enable numeric entry press <Right Arrow>.
3. Use the number keys to type the Thermal Coefficient value.
4. To register the data press <ENTER>.
Mod of Elast PSI
Use this menu cell to set the Modular Elasticity in PSI.
Entering the Modulus of Elasticity value:
1. In the [Pipe Data] menu, scroll down to highlight [Mod of Elast PSI].
2. To enable numeric entry press <Right Arrow>.
3. Use the number keys to type the Modular Elasticity PSI value.
4. To register the data press <ENTER>.
