Question
A 13 in length of aluminum tubing (with E = 11.4 x 106 psi and = 12 x 10-6 /deg F) having
a cross-sectional area of 1.6 in2 is installed with “fixed” ends so that it is stress-free at 70 deg
F. In operation, the tube is heated throughout to a uniform 500 deg F. Careful measurement
at the higher temperature indicates that the fixed ends separate to 13.008 in. What loads are
exerted on the ends of the tube, and what are the resultant stresses?
