Dimensional crossover of thermal conductance in nanowires [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Dimensional dependence of thermal conductance at low temperatures in nanowires is studied using the nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) method. Our calculation shows a smooth dimensional crossover of thermal conductance in nanowire from one-dimensional to three-dimensional behavior with the increase of diameters.

Ultrahigh thermal conductivity in hexagonal BC6N- An efficient material for nanoscale thermal management- A first principles study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Engineering materials with high thermal conductivity are of fundamental interest for efficiently dissipating heat in micro/nanoelectronics. Using first principles computations we report an ultra-high thermal conductivity of 2090 Wm-1K-1 (1395 Wm-1K-1) for hexagonal pure (natural) BC6N(h-BC6N).

Surge current and electron swarm tunnel tests of thermal blanket and ground strap materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
The results are described of a series of current conduction tests with a thermal control blanket to which grounding straps have been attached. The material and the ground strap attachment procedure are described. The current conduction tests consisted of

Thermal conductivity of graphene isotope superlattices [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Graphene has a high intrinsic thermal conductivity and a high electron mobility. The thermal conductivity of graphene can be significantly reduced when different carbon isotopes are mixed, which can enhance the performance of thermoelectric devices. Here we compare the thermal conductivities of isotopic c12/c13 random mixes with isotope superlattices ...

Carbon Nanotube Thermal Transport: Ballistic to Diffusive

open access: yes, 2005
We propose to use l_0/(l_0+L) for the energy transmission covering both ballistic and diffusive regimes, where l_0 is mean free path and L is system length. This formula is applied to heat conduction in carbon nanotubes (CNTs).

Thermal Conductance of Interleaving Fins [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Applied, 2019
Interleaving fins can significantly increase the heat transfer by increasing the effective area per unit base area. The fins are separated uniformly by a gap, which is filled with a flow medium to control the heat flux. The heat flux between the plates depends strongly on the thermal conductivity of the fin material and the medium between them as well ...

Stochastic transient analysis of thermal stresses in solids by explicit time-domain method

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2019
Stochastic heat conduction and thermal stress analysis of structures has received considerable attention in recent years. The propagation of uncertain thermal environments will lead to stochastic variations in temperature fields and thermal stresses ...

Heat conduction and thermal convection on thermal front movement during natural gas hydrate thermal stimulation exploitation

open access: yesOil & Gas Science and Technology, 2018
Natural Gas Hydrate (NGH) has attracted increasing attention for its great potential as clean energy in the future. The main heat transfer mode that controls the thermal front movement in the process of NGH exploitation by heat injection was discussed ...

Thermal currents in highly correlated systems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1996
Conventional approaches to thermal conductivity in itinerant systems neglect the contribution to thermal current due to interactions. We derive this contribution to the thermal current and show how it produces important corrections to the thermal conductivity in anisotropic superconductors. We discuss the possible relevance of these corrections for the

Experimental determination of phonon thermal conductivity and Lorenz ratio of single crystal metals: Al, Cu and Zn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We use a magnetothermal resistance method to measure lattice thermal conductivity of pure single crystal metals over a wide range of temperatures. Large transverse magnetic fields are applied to suppress electronic thermal conduction. The total thermal conductivity and the electrical conductivity are measured as functions of applied magnetic field. The
