Relative Plate Thickness Factor evaluator uses Relative Plate Thickness Factor = Thickness of Filler Metal*sqrt(((Temperature for Cooling Rate-Ambient Temperature)*Density of Metal*Specific Heat Capacity)/Net Heat Supplied Per Unit Length) to evaluate the Relative Plate Thickness Factor, Relative Plate Thickness Factor is a parameter used in structural engineering, particularly in the analysis of thin-walled structures like pressure vessels or cylindrical shells. Relative Plate Thickness Factor is denoted by τ symbol.
