Managing the heat generated by components has always been an important element of electronic design. It is even more true today as power densities continue to increase and individual components such ...

When the separation of two surfaces approaches sub-nanometre scale, the boundary between the two most fundamental heat transfer modes, heat conduction by phonons and radiation by photons, is blurred.

Fundamentals of heat transfer by conduction, convection, radiation. Steady and transient heat conduction in solids. Forced and free convection in fluids. properties of thermal radiation. Radiation ...

New technology from University of Houston researchers could improve the way devices manage heat, thanks to a technique that ...

A mechanical pusher mechanism introduces the product carrier in pusher-type furnaces. The product carrier can include a rectangular boat with a lid in the case of a system equipped with a flat hearth ...

The particles of liquids are further apart than solids. This means that most liquids are poor conductors of heat because the frequency of collisions is reduced. The particles of gases are even further ...

ABSTRACT Soil heat transfer is complex, and conduction-alone models may not always perform well in estimating soil apparent thermal diffusivity. Soil apparent thermal diffusivity is related to soil ...

Using four-photon scattering, Purdue University researchers found that graphene's thermal qualities might not be as groundbreaking as first believed. Image Credit: Kateryna Kon/Shutterstock.com ...
