Avoiding Undercooling and Recalescence The thermal analysis data indicated that the initial state of iron varied from heat to heat, presenting different degrees of under-cooling.
When recalescence is observed, the furnace temperature is set to within 1 K below the freezing-point temperature.
First, the recalescence phenomenon, where the temperature rises due to the latent heat release, is well illustrated and a substantial temperature plateau develops immediately after the recalescence.
