About this document

Thermostatic Bimetals Handbook PDF by Octavian Harnagea is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document provides an introduction to thermostatic bimetals, which consist of two metal layers firmly bonded together that have different coefficients of thermal expansion. When heated, the layers expand to different lengths, placing one layer in tension and the other in compression and causing the bimetal to bend into an arc. The document defines key properties of bimetals like flexivity and specific thermal deflection and describes how they are calculated. It also outlines applications, design conside
