When cooled to its superconducting state, niobium blocks the radiative flow of heat 20 times better than when in its metallic ...

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

Fluids play a crucial role in industrial processes like cooling, heating, and mixing. Traditionally, most industries would utilize Newtonian fluids—which have a constant viscosity—for such processes.

Heat transfer and flow friction design characteristics are presented for some "second-generation" glass-ceramic heat exchanger surfaces. These surfaces are of interest in their application as the ...

University of Houston researchers have developed a new way to make heat flow in ...

Engineers have long known how to steer electricity in one direction, but heat has been far harder to tame. Now a new one-way thermal “diode” promises to give designers similar control over heat flow, ...

Figure 1. A faulty flame disperser may cause the coils adjacent to the flame to absorb more heat energy than optimally designed. February 15, 2022 Heat transfer fluids are often taken for granted, ...

Textbook formulas for describing heat flow characteristics, crucial in many industries, are oversimplified, study shows. Whether it's water flowing across a condenser plate in an industrial plant, or ...
