LINEAREXPCOEF

 

LINEAREXPCOEF [1/K, 1/R] returns the linear coefficient of thermal expansion of an incompressible substance. The first argument must be the name of an incompressible substance.  The second argument must be temperature provided in the units EES is configured to operate in

 

Example:

 

$UnitSystem SI C kPa mass

$VarInfo alpha units=1/K

$Load Incompressible

alpha=LinearExpCoef(Copper, T=25 [C])

 

{Solution:

alpha=0.00001658 [1/K]

}
