When designing electronics, heat dissipated to the surroundings by micro devices is an important consideration because heat has a powerful and stringent effect on their operation and lifespan. When an ...

A Dutch research team has outlined a new method to assess the coefficient of performance of air-to-water heat pumps by considering ambient temperature and relative humidity. The model is based on the ...

Illustration of luminescence-based multi-point temperature determination inside an opaque packed bed loaded with 6 color-marked spheres coated with luminescent materials. Left, right: examples of ...

Three-dimensional steady-state heat transfer simulation. (a) Temperature map for an x–y slice taken through the middle of a 2 nm high and 100 nm wide cylindrical uniform heat source located directly ...

It’s a simple fact that, in this universe at least, energy is always conserved. For the typical electronic system, this means that the energy put into the system must eventually leave the system.

Toyota used multiphysics software to build a better heat sink for its future hybrid vehicles. • Engineers designed a smaller and moreefficient heat sink to thermally regulate the electronic components ...
