Numerical Simulation and Analysis of Heat Transfer Characteristics in Gradient‐Porosity Foam Copper Composite Phase Change Materials

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates the heat transfer characteristics of copper‐foam composite phase change materials with different gradient porosities. Three models with uniform porosity and three models with gradient porosities are developed to examine their effects on temperature distribution and melting behavior. ABSTRACT Phase change materials (PCMs) exhibit

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.

An Experimental Investigation on the Impact of Burner Height and Location on the Characteristics of Externally Venting Flames

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire sources in actual compartment fires exhibit a predominantly uneven spatial distribution. In this context, the impact of the height and location of the fire source, as well as the heat release rate (HRR) of the fire, on the thermal characteristics of Externally Venting Flames (EVF) is experimentally investigated.

Asymptotics of spectral function of lower energy forms and Bergman kernel of semi-positive and big line bundles

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of the spectral function corresponding to the lower part of the spectrum of the Kodaira Laplacian on high tensor powers of a holomorphic line bundle.

Abnormal field-dependence of magnetocaloric effect in ErB4 and TmB4

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
The coupled system of multi-degrees of freedom, such as charge, spin, orbital and lattice, has recently received much attention due to its potential to improve the magnetocaloric effect (MCE).

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

open access: yesHeat 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 ...

Subjective Evaluations with Performance Feedback [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper models two key roles of subjective performance evaluations: their incentive role and their feedback role. The paper shows that the feedback role makes subjective pay feasible even without repeated interaction, as long as there exists some ...
