Refined Estimation Of Thermal Tensile Stresses In BoltsThermal changes in tensile stresses and strains in bolt and in corresponding compressive stresses and strains in bolted material estimated more accurately by use of equations incorporating two refinements over previous equations. Elasticity of bolted material and radial thermal expansion also taken into account. Refined equations improve design and analysis of bolted joints assembled at one temperature (e.g., room temperature) and in which specified minimum tension must be maintained (and/or specified maximum tension not exceeded) at higher or lower operational temperature.
