Sorry, just having a bit of fun with the picture. But seriously, to have had an opportunity to walk thru the lab and have "seen" the production model is one thing. To have access to the bench test results to check and verify "coefficient of expansion calculations" is another thing altogether. My original question stands.

Actually you could calculate the linear expansion by using the micrometer as a scale in that picture as well.To avoid another Avro story,would it not be agreeable to say that if Global Thermoelectric did not do their math correctly they would of blown themselves up.It is nice to see the word fun posted. coefficient of expansion is the increase in length of a one inch piece of metal,when its temperature is increased one degree F. T1-T2xLx{C.Exp.} the factor in brackets is a constant that is listed in a table for ferrous or non-ferrous metals, for example steel would be .000065 inches.Each metal has their own factor so that is where the specifications are important.
