Problem:

What resources does fixed heat exchangers use for EN 13445 thermal expansion coefficient?

Solution:

In the Material database (\Config\Material.emdm):

For a EN material, if there is no value in the table "Thermal Expansion EN Ref" the program will use by default the values entered in the Table "Thermal Expansion Ref:"
These default values come from CODAP Code.

See below an example:

Note: the Material database is a customizable file, the user can change/update the tables.
