How to Fix Unit Problems - Сообщения

α= 0.0001
Δt = 50 ℃
L=40m
Δl = α*Δt*L= 0.02m
but result is Δl = 0.1293 K m
The unit of Δt applied K instead of ℃.
Δt = 323.15 K
How can i get the result 0.02m

There is delta temperatures for that.
For unit conversion, 0°C = 273.15K.
50°C = 323.15K.
Unitwise 1*Δ°C = 1*K obviously.
In your calculation, ΔT become 323.15K.
But it should be 50K actually.
This is because °C is converted to K.
Use delta versions for temperature changes.

thank you.
can the unit of Δl be expressed in just (mm)?

You have to have a K divisor for that.
If you put a K as denominator for α, that will do.
Or you can put as divisor for the equation.
But alpha makes more sense.

Greetings!
The Coefficient of Expansion is not unitless, it has units ｢1 / change in temperature｣; I would apply the unit directly to α.
Just for reference, here is my definition of α for aluminum:
Hope this helps!

German Al behaves significantly different (23 µm/(m*K) which is approx 13 µm/(m*°F)), your value looks more like that for german steel (12 µm/(m*K)).

Thanks mkraska1
Thank you for identifying my error, I had my values for Aluminum and Steel flipped.
