A modified Bowen ratio method to determine sensible and latent heat fluxes
The sensible heat flux (H) and the latent heat flux (λE) were measured above a grassland during June, 1997 (LINEX-97/1 Experiment), using the eddy covariance method (EC) and the Bowen ratio/Energy balance method (BREB).

Estimation of transpiration in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) with the heat ratio method
Sap flow sensors were installed on the leaf petioles of 5-year-old oil palms (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) to measure the xylem water flow for 12 days based on the heat ratio method (HRM).

An Improved Lattice Boltzmann Method for Simulating High-Conductivity-Ratio Conjugate Heat Transfer
This paper presents an improved lattice Boltzmann method for simulating conjugate heat transfer. In conventional lattice Boltzmann methods, the coupling between thermal conductivity and relaxation time limits numerical stability for high-conductivity ...

A Bowen ratio-informed method for coordinating the estimates of air–sea turbulent heat fluxes
Accurate quantification of turbulent heat fluxes [THF, comprising sensible heat flux (SHF) and latent heat flux (LHF)] and Bowen ratio ( β , ratio of SHF and LHF) is essential for understanding the air–sea interaction.

A Calibration of the Solar Load Ratio Method to Determine the Heat Gain in PV-Trombe Walls [PDF]
The Trombe wall is a passive system used in buildings that indirectly transfers thermal energy to the adjacent environment by radiation and convection, and directly by the thermo-circulation that arises in the air cavity delimited between a transparent and an absorbing surface. Nevertheless, the latter is painted black to increase the energy gains, but

Physical and Morphological Changes in Heat-Treated and Densified Fast-Growing Timber Material [PDF]
Heat treatment is a modification method that can alter the polymeric components of wood (cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin). Densification technology has emerged as one of the promising technologies capable of improving the properties of low-density ...
