Thermal transport beyond Fourier, and beyond Boltzmann

Crystals and glasses exhibit fundamentally different heat conduction mechanisms: the periodicity of crystals allows for the excitation of propagating vibrational waves that carry heat, as first discussed by Peierls in 1929, while in glasses the lack of per ...

Pressure Drop and Convective Heat Transfer in Different SiSiC Structures Fabricated by Indirect Additive Manufacturing

Sophia Haussener, Ehsan Rezaei, Alberto Ortona, Maurizio Barbato

The microstructure of porous materials has a significant effect on their transport properties. Engineered cellular ceramics can be designed to exhibit properties at will, thanks to the advances in additive manufacturing. We investigated the heat and mass t ...

Copper battery for heat to power conversion and energy storage

Sunny Isaïe Maye

An important part of the electricity production relies on heat conversion. Indeed power plants burn fuels like natural gas, coal or use nuclear fission to produce heat that can be transformed into electricity through a thermodynamic cycle and the mechanica ...

Rapid, Robust, and Relevant (R3) Reactivity Test for Supplementary Cementitious Materials

Karen Scrivener, Ruben Anton Snellings, François Henri Avet, Xuerun Li

Although supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are now commonly accepted and widely used, consensus has not been reached for methods to test their chemical reactivity. A multitude of test methods exist but often fall short on one or more of the key f ...

A heat integration method with location-dependent heat distribution losses

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Hür Ebuzer Bütün

Energy consumption in industrial processes is mainly in the form of heat. Thus, heat recovery is one of the main focuses in industrial energy efficiency problems. Heat integration (HI) techniques have been studied extensively to solve such problems. One of ...

Heat flows on hyperbolic spaces

Marius Christopher Lemm

In this paper we develop new methods for studying the convergence problem for the heat flow on negatively curved spaces and prove that any quasiconformal map of the sphere Sn−1,n≥3, can be extended to the n-dimensional hyperbolic space such that the heat f ...
