Editor’s note: The KOIN 6 Weather team is presenting weather and science lessons to help serve our teachers and students. Click here for more lessons. PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – We’re heating up the ...

NIMS, in joint research with the University of Tokyo, AIST, the University of Osaka, and Tohoku University, have proposed a ...

The field of electrohydrodynamic (EHD) conduction pumping has emerged as a promising technique to actively control fluid flow and enhance heat transfer without the need for mechanical components. By ...

Continuing the heat transfer series, in this video we take a look at conduction and the heat equation. Fourier's law is used to calculate the rate at which heat is transferred through an object due to ...

In some cases, heat conduction can even be dramatically limited by the fact that different isotopes of an element are built into the material -- i.e. similar atoms with different numbers of neutrons.

Zero-thermal-expansion (ZTE) materials are widely used in precision optics, cryogenic equipment and sensors, where even small ...

The thermal utilization of sustainable fuels and the recovery of waste heat play a central role in today’s energy generation ...

Geothermal energy is clean and renewable, derived from the heat stored within accessible depths of the Earth’s crust. The ...

Package heat spreaders can offer a variety of benefits such as protection of the silicon, warpage management, increased reliability, and thermal enhancement, however, there are tradeoffs for every ...

Power consumed by semiconductors creates heat, which must be removed from the device, but how to do this efficiently is a growing challenge. Heat is the waste product of semiconductors. It is produced ...
