Thermal energy storage using the effects of the latent heat in the solid-liquid phase transformation has found its way into every day applications. Reusable, organic phase change media stabilize low temperatures of parcels, and salt/water tanks act as buff ...
The invention provides in one embodiment a heat exchanger module (1) comprising a) a flexible support (100); b) at least one tubular member (200) having its main axis substantially parallel with the plane of the flexible support (100); c) a conductive flex ...
The condensation sink is a measure of the sulfuric acid lifetime against condensation on preexisting aerosol particles. Dimensionally it is the inverse of a time (reported in per second) and it is calculated starting from the aerosol size distribution. A l ...
Many high power (opto-) electronic devices such as transistors, diodes, and lasers suffer from significant hot spot temperature rises due to the high heat fluxes generated in their active area, which limits their performance, reliability, and lifetime. Emp ...
High temperature heat pumps (HTHPs) with heat sink temperatures in the range of 100 to 160°C are expected to become increasingly commercialized in the coming years. Major applications have been identified, particularly in the food, paper, metal and chemica ...
This work aims at experimentally assessing the effect of structural disorder and/or chemical interdiffusion on thermal boundary conductance (TBC) at metal/dielectric interfaces. To this end, the TBC of Au/Si and Ti/Si interfaces was measured by time domain ...
We explore two methods for single-crystal growth of the theoretically proposed magnetic Weyl semimetals RAlGe (R = Pr, Ce), which prove that a floating-zone technique, being both crucible- and flux-free, is crucial to obtain perfectly stoichiometric RAlGe ...
In recent decades, energy efficiency has become one of the key issues facing large process industries. Mounting economic, environmental and social pressure motivate energy-intensive industries to improve their efficiency. Identifying retrofit opportunities ...
This study reviews the current state of the art of high temperature heat pumps (HTHPs) with heat sink temperatures of 90 to 160°C. The focus is on the analysis of heat pump cycles, suitable refrigerants, and the operating ranges of commercially available H ...
This study reviews the current state of the art and the current research activities of high temperature heat pumps (HTHPs) with heat sink temperatures in the range of 90 to 160°C. The focus is on the analysis of the heat pump cycles and the suitable refrig ...
