Japan’s Toray Industries Inc. has developed a thermal conductivity technology that raises the heat-dissipating properties of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) to that of metals. Applying this ...

Metal feels colder than wood because it rapidly transfers heat away from your body due to its dense atomic structure and free electrons. This efficient heat conduction triggers a stronger sensation of ...

Thermal Conduction is a “hot” topic! Dr. Rob and the Crew explore how thermal energy is transferred and conserved in different environments. STEM Challenge: Making Thermal Oobleck Curious About ...

The power-semiconductor industry is experiencing growth exceeding 7% per year, driven by new applications such as electric cars and new technologies like silicon-carbide (SiC) and gallium-nitride ...

For two centuries, engineers have trusted a simple rule to predict how heat flows through solids, from jet-engine blades to ...

Cellulose is by far the most common biopolymer on the planet, and it is well known for its renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable nature. Cellulose is a type of linear polysaccharide (β (1−4) ...

Thermal runaway is a rapid self-heating process in a cell, driven by exothermic reactions within its materials, resulting in the release of stored chemical energy. While it can be triggered by factors ...

Design engineers are rethinking cooling strategies from the ground up as the data center industry evolves to meet surging demands driven by AI computing and 24/7 uptime. Among the most impactful ...
