The thermal shock resistance is illustrated by the image below. To calculate thermal shock resistance, four essential parameters are needed and these parameters are High Fracture Strength (σf), Thermal Conductivity (K), Elastic Modulus (E) and Linear Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (αL).
The formula for calculating thermal shock resistance:
TSR = σfK/EαL
Where:
TSR = Thermal Shock Resistance
σf = High Fracture Strength
K = Thermal Conductivity
E = Elastic Modulus
αL = Linear Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
Let’s solve an example;
Find the thermal shock resistance when the high fracture strength is 21, the thermal conductivity is 5, the elastic modulus is 2 and the linear coefficient of thermal expansion is 7.
This implies that;
σf = High Fracture Strength = 21
K = Thermal Conductivity = 5
E = Elastic Modulus = 2
αL = Linear Coefficient of Thermal Expansion = 7
TSR = σfK/EαL
TSR =Â (21)(5)/(2)(7)
That is, TSR = 105/14
TSR = 7.5
Therefore, the thermal shock resistance is 7.5 Ω.
