Integrating Remote Sensing and Machine Learning for Enhanced Surface Urban Heat Island Analysis and Its Impact on Building Energy Demand

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Satellite (MODIS) mapping links Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity to city‐scale energy demand—higher daytime cooling demand and altered nighttime heating demand—supporting targeted mitigation and planning. ABSTRACT This study examines the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect on building energy consumption in Tehran from 1998 to 2024, utilizing MODIS

Thermal Characterisation of Millet to Develop Sustainable Intumescent Passive Fire Protection Systems

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intumescent paints, coatings, or sealants are a popular form of passive protection in the fire industry. However, the impact of their toxicity and constituent synthetic chemical ingredients is an important consideration for sustainability. This research experimentally studied an agricultural grain, known as millet, quantifying its unusual ...

Application of High‐Order Direct Flux Reconstruction and Stiffness‐Resilient Time Integration to Simulations of Idealized Atmospheric Flows

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
The proposed work implements a direct flux reconstruction method for spatial discretization and a stiffness‐resilient exponential time integration method for temporal discretization on the cube‐sphere grid. A space‐time tensor formalism is employed to provide a general representation in any curvilinear coordinate system. This combination enables highly

Downdraft Devices for Negative Emissions—Quantification Study and Environmental Implication

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas with a global warming potential far exceeding that of CO2 over short time horizons. Its removal from the atmosphere remains challenging due to its low ambient concentration and chemical stability. This study explores downdraft energy towers (DETs) as an innovative CH4 mitigation technology that enhances

Evidence From Microscopy and U–Pb Geochronology as a Clue to the Influence of the Cretaceous Magmatism in the Diagenesis of Pre‐Salt Carbonate Reservoirs in the Santos Basin (Brazil)

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.

Heat Transfer Performance of Biphilic Surfaces With Diatomite‐Based Composite Coatings in a Closed Thermosyphon System

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the thermal performance of innovative biphilic boiling surfaces designed for CPU cooling applications using a two‐phase closed thermosyphon (TPCT) system. The surfaces were fabricated by applying composite coatings—comprising epoxy resin and diatomite particles functionalized with APTES and PFOTS silanes— onto Al1050 ...

Experimental Factors and Techniques for Pool Boiling Heat Transfer Enhancement: A Critical Review

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review presents a comprehensive assessment of active strategies for enhancing pool boiling heat transfer, with a focus on techniques that do not rely solely on the boiling surface modification. It examines a broad range of methodologies including fluid additives, external fields, mechanical interventions, and thermal‐geometric tuning that
