Calculate thermal expansion and thermal expansion length from temperature (ASME B31.1 Table B-1 SI units). thermal expansion from 20 C is interpolated from table C-2.
The mean thermal expansion coefficient, thermal expansion and expansion length are calculated from the design base temperature to the design temperature. The expansion coefficient is calculated at the design temperature.
