The thermal shock and erosion resistance is considered to be intermediate among the oxides, but outstanding compared to non-oxide IR transmitting materials.
42.
When using single chamber thermal shock equipment, the products remain in one chamber and the chamber air temperature is rapidly cooled and heated.
43.
The process is known for its unpredictability, particularly when reduction is forced, and pieces may crack or even explode due to thermal shock.
44.
At the worst of times, it visits thermal shock upon trout and other inhabitants of an ecosystem with human fingerprints all over it.
45.
Temperature control valves are used to blend hot supply water into the return to avoid thermal shock or condensation inside of the boiler.
46.
Unlike neighboring Pompeii, the citizens of Herculaneum died of thermal shock from the extremely hot pyroclastic surges, rather than buried under heavy ash.
47.
The same test-piece can be measured after different thermal shock cycles and this way the deterioration in physical properties can be mapped out.
48.
Portholes on spacecraft must be made from glass that can survive rapid temperature changes, without suffering the cracking that can result from thermal shock.
49.
The thermal heat from wildfire can cause significant weathering of rocks and boulders, heat can rapidly expand a boulder and thermal shock can occur.
50.
Before being fed into the steam generator, the condensed steam ( referred to as feedwater ) is sometimes preheated in order to minimize thermal shock.
