Thermal runaway describes a process that is accelerated by increased temperature, in turn releasing energy that further increases temperature. Thermal...

producing thermal runaway and possibly an explosion or other chemical reaction. A simple substance (like water) may exist in equilibrium with its thermal decomposition...

with low thermal conductivity, where dielectric constant increases with temperature, microwave heating can cause localized thermal runaway. Under certain...

intermediate voltages into '0' and '1' states. On the other hand, thermal runaway is a type of positive feedback that can destroy semiconductor junctions...

some battery chemistries are at risk of thermal runaway, leading to cell rupture or combustion. As thermal runaway is determined not only by cell chemistry...

McDonnell Douglas DC-10 in 1979. The plane has had two major battery thermal runaway events in 52,000 flight hours, neither of which were contained safely;...

the cooler regions when Vgs is very close to Vth. This can lead to thermal runaway and the destruction of the MOSFET even when it is operating within...

in temperature due to exothermic internal reactions), followed by thermal runaway (self heating which rapidly accelerates to high temperatures) and finally...

overheated or overcharged, Li-ion batteries may suffer thermal runaway and cell rupture. During thermal runaway, internal degradation and oxidization processes...

evolutionary stages of a massive star, or when a white dwarf is triggered into runaway nuclear fusion. The original object, called the progenitor, either collapses...

plastic deformation faster than it can be conducted away. The result is thermal runaway, a positive feedback loop of heating, material weakening, and strain...

releasing more heat than what can be removed and becoming uncontrollable Thermal runaway, self-increase of the reaction rate of an exothermic process while...

A helium flash is a very brief thermal runaway nuclear fusion of large quantities of helium into carbon through the triple-alpha process in the core of...

positive feedback results in thermal runaway. There are several approaches to mitigate bipolar transistor thermal runaway. For example, Negative feedback...

fires in light of the continuing numerous fire incidents. They were thermal runaway incidents related to the lithium-ion batteries. The brands involved...

reaction energy with virtually no cobalt content to avoid cobalt's thermal runaway characteristic, have become available. FAA approved a 787 battery in...

traffic control can have snow obscuring them, leading to accidents. Thermal runaway: Parallel strings of LEDs will not share current evenly due to the...

metallisation on a chip may thus cause secondary overvoltage damage. Thermal runaway can cause sudden failures including melting, fire or explosions. The...

many bystanders. In chemical engineering, a reaction which undergoes thermal runaway can cause catastrophic failure. It can be difficult to isolate the...

−78 °C (−108 °F; 195 K), which can be used for instance to prevent thermal runaway in a Swern oxidation. The process of altering cloud precipitation can...

supported by degeneracy rather than thermal pressure, allowing the temperature to rise exponentially. The resulting runaway carbon detonation completely blows...

most communities. A fire in a single cell can cascade to others via thermal runaway, possibly in milliseconds, potentially creating a major hazard. Preventing...

low-impedance system. Joule heating in a current-biased TES can lead to thermal runaway that drives the detector into the normal (non-superconducting) state...

common in the 1950s and 1960s but has a greater tendency to exhibit thermal runaway. Since germanium p-n junctions have a lower forward bias than silicon...
