Hi Dave,
there may be a 'reasonable' way, but not a sufficiently accurate one. If you want to know the CTE's of a PCB, you need to measure it—in all three directions, please.

Subject: [TN] method of calculating CTE of a rigid flex circuit board
Hello,
Does anyone know of a reasonably accurate way of calculating the overall
CTE of a 4 layer rigid flex circuit board?
Thanks,
