Nonlinear Heat Radiation Induces Thermal Rectifier in Asymmetric Holey Composites
Asymmetric design and nonlinearity are essential to give rise to thermal rectification. In addition to the linear Fourier’s law of thermal conduction, we introduce the nonlinear thermal radiation following Stefan–Boltzmann law to asymmetric holey ...

A Thermopile Detector Based on Micro-Bridges for Heat Transfer
A thermopile detector with their thermocouples distributed in micro-bridges is designed and investigated in this work. The thermopile detector consists of 16 pairs of n-poly-Si/p-poly-Si thermocouples, which are fabricated using a low-cost, high ...

Towards Optimizing Width Modulation for Maximum Thermoelectric Efficiency
Maximizing thermoelectric efficiency is typically addressed as identical to minimizing parasitic thermal conduction. Such an approach relies on the assumption that the adopted strategy mainly affects phonons, leaving electrons intact, and is not ...

Thermal Conductivity of Soil [PDF]
THE flow of heat away from buried electric cables, steam pipes, etc., is directly proportional to the conductivity of the surrounding soil. It follows that a knowledge of soil conductivities is necessary to the engineer. Unfortunately, there are almost as many values of soil conductivity as there have been experimenters in this field.

Length-dependent thermal transport and ballistic thermal conduction
Probing length-dependent thermal conductivity of a given material has been considered as an important experimental method to determine the length of ballistic thermal conduction, or equivalently, the averaged phonon mean free path (l).

Thermal conductivity of Triassic evaporites
SUMMARY Evaporites occur in various geological environments: sedimentary basins, orogenic belts, where they often act as tectonic decoupling layers, and as top-seals in hydrocarbon fields. In all cases, they affect the temperature distribution in the upper crust, as their thermal conductivity is relatively higher with respect to other ...

Heat conduction in deformable Frenkel-Kontorova lattices: thermal conductivity and negative differential thermal resistance [PDF]
Heat conduction through the Frenkel-Kontorova (FK) lattices is numerically investigated in the presence of a deformable substrate potential. It is found that the deformation of the substrate potential has a strong influence on heat conduction. The thermal conductivity as a function of the shape parameter is nonmonotonic.
