fully restrained thermal stress calculator online

Use fully restrained thermal stress estimate online for modulus GPa, expansion per K, temperature change K. Uniform uniaxial full restraint; negative indicates compression on heating. Idealized linear material model where stated; no failure assessment, allowable stress, structural certification or compliance calculation is provided.

How to use it

Enter modulus GPa. Set expansion per K, temperature change K. Select Calculate and check the labeled output. Copy or download the JSON result.

Options and example settings

OptionChoices / valueExample default
modulus GPaMain input. Positive values. 200
expansion per KOption. Positive values. 0.000012
temperature change KOption. Signed finite values. 50

Calculation method

stress_MPa = -modulus_GPa*1000*expansion_per_K*temperature_change_K (^ means exponentiation; trig functions ending in d use degrees).

Worked examples

Apply fully restrained thermal stress estimate to the case below, keeping the displayed units and assumptions. Uniform uniaxial full restraint; negative indicates compression on heating.

Fully Restrained Thermal Stress Estimate — worked case

Settings: expansion per K: 0.000012; temperature change K: 50

Input:

200

Calculated result for these inputs:

Output:

{
  "stress_MPa": -120
}

Choose the right tool

Choose the loading case and boundary conditions before entering values. Engineering stress differs from true stress; beam and thin-wall formulas require their stated idealizations. These calculators do not establish allowable loads or safe designs.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Uniform uniaxial full restraint; negative indicates compression on heating. Idealized linear material model where stated; no failure assessment, allowable stress, structural certification or compliance calculation is provided.
  • Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.
