Abstract
This communication presents the results of a series of experiments designed to investigate anomalous thermal responses of metallic bars subjected to rapid local cooling. Heating to 150 °C and subsequent rapid cooling of one end of a copper bar resulted in a temporal increase in the temperature of the other end of the bar of about 4 °C. Similar behavior was observed for other metallic bars, namely steel, aluminum, and brass. We will refer to this effect as 'Heating Through Cooling'. The physics of this phenomena appears to be similar to the process called a 'steam explosion'.
