NIMS, in joint research with the University of Tokyo, AIST, the University of Osaka, and Tohoku University, have proposed a ...

Conduction is the direct flow of heat from your warm body into your colder surroundings. In winter, all that heat escaping ...

For two centuries, engineers have trusted a simple rule to predict how heat flows through solids, from jet-engine blades to smartphone chips. Now a set of carefully designed experiments has revealed a ...

Mountain permafrost is warming and thawing worldwide due to climate change, with ground temperature being a key control of ...

A thermos bottle has the task of preserving the temperature - but sometimes you want to achieve the opposite: Computer chips generate heat that must be dissipated as quickly as possible so that the ...

Managing heat is a major challenge in electronics and engineering, and it’s controlled using materials that either conduct or insulate heat. A new material blurs that line by blocking heat in one ...

Graphene, a material which consists of a single layer of carbon atoms, has been celebrated by many as the 'next big thing' in material science. But according to researchers, its thermal properties may ...

Hi !<BR><BR>I am new to this forum and hope that after searching a thousand other places I would get the answer I am seeking.<BR><BR>The question is simple " which material is a good conductor of ...

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 ...

Vapor chamber heat sinks employ a phase change principle to eliminate hot spots and keep power semiconductors cooler than traditional heat sinks, increasing system reliability and decreasing field ...

In order to remove heat, for example from computer chips, materials are needed which are extremely good at conducting heat. Scientists in Vienna have analyzed materials on an atomic level and found an ...
