Planar Bridging-Droplet Thermal Diode

2022
This disclosure provides a thermal diode including a first plate having a first surface defining a wick structure. The thermal diode can include a second plate having a smooth surface facing the wick structure, the smooth surface and the wick structure defining a chamber for accommodating a phase-change liquid.

Thermal Rearrangements of Heteroatom‐Bridged Diallenes

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2006
AbstractA systematic application of the BLYP/6‐311+G*//BLYP/6‐31G* computational scheme was utilized to identify the favored aromatic 2,6‐reactions leading to the formally aromatic hetero‐3,4‐dimethylenecyclopentadienediyl derivatives from the thermal rearrangements of (hetero)atom‐bridged diallenes (X = CH–, NH, O, S).

Transient Thermal Behavior of Composite Bridges

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1983
Analytical and experimental investigations into the transient thermal behavior of continuous composite steel beam-reinforced concrete slab high-way bridges are reported. Temperatures and deformations were measured during transient cooling of a 0.354 scale model of a three-span continuous bridge.

Insulation and the thermal bridge effect

Batiment International, Building Research and Practice, 1980
As energy costs soar, attention increasingly focuses on economy measures such as providing significant extra insulation to existing dwellings. But more insulation on wall interiors can paradoxically increase the outward heat flow through the existing escape routes, the ‘thermal bridges’.

Briefing: Steel construction and thermal bridging

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Energy, 2007
Thermal bridging has become more of an issue following the introduction of the 2006 revision part L of the Building Regulations for England and Wales. The term refers to the additional heat loss from a building as a result of either geometry (for example at corners) or components of relatively high thermal conductivity penetrating the insulated ...

Thermal Behavior of Composite Girder Bridges

2009 Second International Conference on Information and Computing Science, 2009
For composite girder bridges, thermal effects could not be ignored which is significant when compared to dead or live load effects. Temperature distributions involved in concrete bridges and composite girder bridges are at best different due to dissimilar material properties and cross sections. This paper presents the characteristics of the temperature

Monitoring Thermal Bridges by Infrared Thermography

2019
In some sections of the building envelope, either structural or formal reasons, or different thermal characteristics of components, higher heat transfer occurs lowering the overall thermal resistance of the building envelope and increasing the heating and cooling energy expenditure.
