Summary
Thermal shock and thermal fatigue can induce significant damage in structural, electronic, optical ceramics as well as in bioceramics. Such damage can limit the use of ceramics in a variety of applications that involve rapid changes in the ambient temperature. The surface heat transfer coefficient, h, is a key parameter in estimating thermal stresses that a component experiences during thermal shock. A method is discussed for using data on the critical quench temperature difference to estimate h.
