According to recent research published in the Journal of Heat Transfer - Transactions of the ASME, "Excessive heat generation within a body can cause unbounded temperature or thermal instability. In this work, a new-stability test is established for heat conduction in one-dimensional multilayer composite solids that have internal heat generation at a rate proportional to the interior temperature."
"In the development, a spatial state formulation in the Laplace transform domain and a root locus analysis yield a stability criterion. This criterion gives an upper bound of heat source for thermal stability and relates the degree of excessive heat production to the ...
