Thermal Expansion Simulation: Brass & Steel Rods

Thermal Expansion of Joined Brass & Steel Rods

40°C 250°C

Simulation Details

Initial length: 50 cm for both brass and steel rods

Brass coefficient (α): 2.0 × 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹

Steel coefficient (β): 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹

Expansion formula: L = L₀(1 + αΔT)

At 40°C: No expansion (initial state)
