Abstract
The effects of water quenching temperature and specimen size on the propagation speed of thermal shock crack are investigated in real time by water quenching of translucent ceramic and high-speed imaging. The results show that the crack growth rate increases with the increase of quenching temperature difference or specimen size. Within 100â¯ms, average crack speed is 20.3â¯mm/s at a temperature difference of 400â¯Â°C in 20â¯mm wide ceramic and is 11.9â¯mm/s at a temperature difference of 220â¯Â°C in 5â¯mm wide ceramic, respectively. Compare with specimen size, the influence of quenching temperature difference on the crack propagation speed is larger. The calculations based on meso-damage mechanics have similar results to those of experiments. This paper quantitatively studies the thermal-shock crack growth of ceramic in real time and expands the scientific understanding of thermal shock cracking phenomenon of ceramic.
