The 15 pages that link to Thermal runaway, each with the reason it gives.

• Lithium-ion batteryRelated: Cell damage or abuse can trigger it, leading to fire or propagation through a pack.

• Thermal expansionRelated: Expansion can alter clearances or contact conditions within systems undergoing runaway heating.

• DetonationRelated: Runaway heat release can trigger initiation or intensify a reaction zone.

• BatteryRelated: In some batteries, it can trigger fire or propagate from cell to cell.

• Chemical reactorRelated: Exothermic reactions can become uncontrollable when a reactor cannot remove heat fast enough.

• Electrical breakdownRelated: In solids and liquids, rising temperature can intensify conduction until insulation fails.

• PyrophoricityRelated: It can intensify pyrophoric oxidation after ignition begins.

• Critical thermal maximumRelated: In some animals, heat accumulation can hasten approach to a critical limit.

• Helium flashRelated: Degenerate helium burning amplifies small temperature rises into rapid fusion.

• Chemical oxygen generatorRelated: Uncontrolled reaction heat can intensify oxygen release and damage the generator.

• Tantalum capacitorRelated: A shorted tantalum capacitor can draw rising current and ignite nearby material.

• Deep-focus earthquakeRelated: Rapid shear heating may weaken deep rock enough to sustain seismic rupture.

• Electric batteryRelated: In some batteries, internal failure can trigger fires or explosions through thermal runaway.

• Semibatch reactorRelated: Feed accumulation and exothermic reactions can create conditions for runaway.

• Thermal engineeringRelated: Thermal control and safety design must prevent unstable temperature escalation.
