Al. Alloy strength at elevated temperatures

Al. Alloy strength at elevated temperatures

(OP)
Hello all,
I'm trying to find out how the yield strength and Young's modulus of an aluminium alloy varies with temperature. The spec sheets I have from our supplier don't give me any hints and neither has a comprehensive net search.

The specific material in question is 2014A-T6 - hopefully a very familiar alloy most engineers. I would really like to know how to approach thermal/mechanical problems in a general sence though, so any pointers would be very much appreciated.

The component has seen transient temperatures of ~190 degrees C, which seems rather toasty for me, hence the question.

Ideal, thank you very much.

Mike
