Al. Alloy strength at elevated temperatures

[MikeAinsworth]

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.

MikeAinsworth,

You did not specify the material form, but the attached graph should help.

I forgot to include the chart for modulus vs. temp.

Ideal, thank you very much.
