Mechanical Engineering Professor Alan McGaughey of Carnegie Mellon University recently coordinated the Phonon Olympics, ...
Non-metallic crystalline materials conduct heat by the transport of quantized atomic lattice vibrations called phonons. Thermal conductivity depends on how far phonons travel between scattering events ...
Research has shown that a number of metallic and nonmetallic nanoparticles are useful in increasing the thermal conductivity of a fluid in comparison to the base fluid. Particles such as Al 2 O 3, CuO ...
QUT researchers have identified why some materials can block heat more effectively, which is a key feature for energy ...
Hot topic Fluorescent nanodiamonds coated with a heat-releasing polymer act as both a heat source and a sensor for intracellular measurements of thermal conductivity. (Courtesy: iStock/Mervana) A ...
How hot are your key components getting? There’s a good chance you’ve built a project and thought: “Well I guess I better slap a heat sink in there to be safe”. But when working on a more refined ...
