Look up belt manufacturers specifications on length change versus temperature and tension and combine that with your pulley diameters and screw pitches to get a number.
Using a tensioning system which applies equally to two both upper and lower belt runs will almost eliminate errors from temperature and tension, good grade ground ball screws with pre-tensioned ball nuts will help too.
