Turkish - English
Definition of sönü in Turkish English dictionary
- (Denizbilim) quenching
- The extinction of any of several physical properties
- Present participle of quench
- The rapid cooling of a hot metal object, by placing it in a liquid, in order to harden it
- Rapid cooling When applicable, the following more specific terms should be used: direct quenching, fog quenching, hot quenching, interrupted quenching, selective quenching, spray quenching, and time quenching
- Rapid cooling of a metal from an elevated temperature
- The reduction of luminescence of a sample by the addition of a quencher
- Controlled rapid cooling of a metal from an elevated temperature by contact with a liquid, a gas, or a solid
- A processing procedure that describes a variety of processes used to rapidly cool a metal product The process is used to improve specific properties of a metal product
- the act of extinguishing; causing to stop burning; "the extinction of the lights"
- {i} satisfaction of a need (esp. thirst); extinguishing, putting out
- Rapid cooling, as by immersion in oil or water, of a metal object from the high temperature at which it is shaped. Quenching is usually done to maintain mechanical properties that would be lost with slow cooling. It is commonly applied to steel objects, to which it gives hardness. The quenching media and the type of agitation during quenching are selected to obtain specified physical properties with minimum internal stresses and distortions. Oil is the mildest medium, and salt brine has the strongest quenching effect. In special cases, steel is cooled and held for some time in a molten salt bath, which is kept at a temperature either just above or just below the temperature where martensite begins to form. These two heat treatments, called martempering and austempering, both result in even less distortion of the metal. Copper objects hardened by hammering or other deformation at ordinary temperatures can be restored to malleability by heating and quenching. See also tempering
- nibbâna: the going out of a lamp or fire; extinguishing (in general) It is the state of final liberation which the Buddha reached and guided others to The attainment of nibbana is construed differently by Hindus and some Mahayana Buddhists (who use the Sanskrit form "nirvana), and it is better to consult other books on the subject for further information "Quenching" is the most evocative translation of the word, and, I believe, the most accurate
- [1] Dipping a heated object into water, oil or other substance, to quickly reduce the temperature Quenching into water gives a more rapid cooling rate than into oil The term also applies to cooling in salt and molten-metal baths or by means of an air blast Applied to steels heated above their upper critical temperature in order to harden them prior to tempering and to other alloys for solution treatment prior to precipitation hardening
- Rapid cooling of a work-piece/material from a higher forming/heat treatment temperature to RT [room temperature], to avoid detrimentaldetrimental precipitations, which negatively influence corrosion resistance, strength, etc
- Cooling from high temperature, usually at a fast rate
- Submersing a piece of metal into a fluid bath Primarily used in the processes of cleaning and heat treating processes such as annealing The ideal quenching temperature for annealing varies from metal to metal Some metals are air-cooled before quenching
