Specific Heat is the ratio of heat required to raise the temperature of a certain weight of material by 1 Deg C to that required to raise the temperature of the same weight of water by 1 Deg C

* Note - To find the expansion at 300 Deg C of a valve with a stem diameter of 0.275" in 214N material (Assuming the stem diameter was measured at 20 Deg. C) the temperature difference is (300 Deg C - 20 Deg C) = 280 Deg C stem diameter x temperature difference x coefficient of thermal expansion = Expansion of Valve ie:0.275 x 280 x 0.0000175 = 0.0013"
