'Thermal diode' design promises to improve heat regulation, prolonging battery life
New technology from University of Houston researchers could improve the way devices manage heat, thanks to a technique that ...
A mechanical pusher mechanism introduces the product carrier in pusher-type furnaces. The product carrier can include a rectangular boat with a lid in the case of a system equipped with a flat hearth ...
ABSTRACT Soil heat transfer is complex, and conduction-alone models may not always perform well in estimating soil apparent thermal diffusivity. Soil apparent thermal diffusivity is related to soil ...
