Ice is cracking ceramics in a vessel
Ice is cracking ceramics in a vessel
(OP)
I have a vessel filled with water and two ceramic plates. One on top and one on the bottom. The top and bottom must be rigid and the distance between them can not change. The fluid must remain between the ceramic plates and the fluid must be distilled water. Dose any one have a suggestion on how to prevent the ice formation from cracking the ceramics. Thank you.

Wasn't it designed for this purpose to begin with?
Why not use a material that doesn't crack?
TTFN

How about adding a hollow balloon inside that can be squeezed to take up the expansion and contraction?

I really think that you need to address the prevention of ice formation in the first place.
What is the system?

Corrosion never sleeps, but it can be managed.
