Value Extrapolation Tool
Extrapolates data points beyond known ranges using linear, polynomial, or exponential methods. Estimates values outside measured data for property predictions and trending analysis.

First Data Point

Second Data Point

Extrapolation Point

Enter X value beyond the data range to extrapolate Y.

Formula

Y = Y₁ + (X - X₁) × (Y₂ - Y₁) / (X₂ - X₁)
Y = Extrapolated value
(X₁, Y₁), (X₂, Y₂) = Known data points
X = Value to extrapolate at

Common Applications

  • Performance Prediction
    Equipment performance beyond tested ranges
  • Trend Analysis
    Future values based on historical data
  • Property Estimation
    Material properties at extreme conditions

Important Notes

  • Extrapolation accuracy decreases rapidly outside data range
  • Linear extrapolation assumes constant trend - verify reasonableness
  • Physical limits may invalidate extrapolated values (e.g., negative pressure)
  • Consider safety factors when using extrapolated data for design
  • Multiple data points provide better extrapolation confidence
