Effect of Thermal Conductive Fillers on the Flame Retardancy, Thermal Conductivity, and Thermal Behavior of Flame-Retardant and Thermal Conductive Polyamide 6 [PDF]
In this work, polyamide 6 (PA6) composites with improved flame retardancy and thermal conductivity were prepared with different thermal conductive fillers (TC fillers) such as aluminum nitride (AlN) and boron nitride (BN) in a PA6 matrix with aluminum diethylphosphinate (AlPi) as a fire retardant.

Thermal Conductance by the Inverse Proximity Effect in a Superconductor [PDF]
We study heat transport in hybrid lateral normal-metal-superconductor-normal-metal structures. We find the thermal conductance of a short superconducting wire to be strongly enhanced beyond the BCS value due to the inverse proximity effect, resulting from contributions of elastic cotunneling and crossed Andreev reflection of quasiparticles.

The Effect of Thermal Conduction on the Virgo Cluster [PDF]
Thermal conduction has been suggested as a possible mechanism by which sufficient energy is supplied to the central regions of galaxy clusters to balance the effect of radiative cooling. Here we present the results of a simulated, high-resolution, 3-d Virgo cluster for different values of thermal conductivity (1, 1/10, 1/100, 0 times the full Spitzer ...

A further discussion on the effective thermal conductivity of metal foam: An improved model [PDF]
In this study, we explain the causes and effects of the geometrical impossible result encountered in the widely adopted tetrakaidecahedron model (Boomsma and Poulikakos, 2001; Dai et al., 2010) for the effective thermal conductivities (ETCs) of metal ...

Effects of thermal conduction in sonoluminescence [PDF]
We show by numerical hydrodynamic calculations that there are two important effects of thermal conduction in sonoluminescence: (i) the bubble remains close to being isothermal during the expansion phase; and (ii) a cold, dense layer of air is formed at the bubble wall during the contraction phase.

Measurement of Effective Thermal Conductivity of Coke
Effective thermal conductivity of metallurgical coke was measured in the temperature range from 100 to 1 400°C by using the laser flash method. Effective thermal conductivity k of coke increased with a rise of temperature, and decreased with an increase of porosity of coke.
