We study an approximate method to estimate linear, surface and volumetric thermal expansion in solid materials. For the development of this method, we rely on the theorem of the real numerical value (TRNV), where the linear, surface and volumetric measurements are interpreted as a derivable function in a real variable. Finally, we compare the numerical stability of the approximate method with respect to the common thermal expansion models.
