Development of a Novel Thermal Shock test for isostatically Pressed Carbon-Bonded Refractories
In refractory engineering, assessing thermal shock resistance is crucial for flow-control components such as ladle shrouds, tundish nozzles, and slide gates. Chemical, mechanical, and thermal degradation of these parts can produce severe safety, environmental and economic consequences in steel …

Cycling studies of micro-tubular solid oxide fuel cells
… were observed. Lastly, thermal and electrical shock test were performed. The critical fracture temperature (ΔTC) was established by thermal shock at approximately 180⁰C. Under electrical shock testing, the tubes were found to fail after 13 – 15 electrical shock cycles, depending on the shock …

Thermomechanical properties of novel lanthanum zirconate based thermal barrier coatings - an integrated experimental and modeling study
… is also investigated, including furnace cycling test, thermal gradient mechanical fatigue test, and jet engine thermal shock test. The results show that for the layered TBCs, porous YSZ + LZ has reasonably good thermal cycling performance. For the composite TBCs, LZ/8YSZ (vol. % is 50:50) with a …
