Temperature Dependent CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion)

Submitted by rohan_patel8388 on

Hello People,

Would anyone please tell me or provide any documentation for how to find Temperature Dependent CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) or modulus of elasticity? I have water which is encapsulated in box made of steel and which goes under freezing process and water expands. 

So i need any mathematic relations for water and metal as well to fine CTE.

Thanking you,

Rohan
