Electrohydrodynamics (EHD) combines the physics of electric fields and fluid dynamics to induce and control flow in dielectric liquids. By applying an electric field in systems with a thermal gradient ...

Scientists on the ISS are studying how condensation works in space to improve cooling systems for electronics on Earth and in ...

People not in the refrigeration business often think that refrigeration equipment produces cold air; in fact, the equipment is actually removing heat from air and leaving what’s left — the cold. When ...

The old saw that a watched pot never boils may not apply to pots given an ultra-thin layer of aluminum oxide, which researchers have reported can double the heat transfer from a hot surface to a ...

There are various things we need for survival. Like water, food and energy. On the last point, our primary source of energy is the Sun, but our relationship with it can only be described as delicate.

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Publisher Information The Royal Society is a self-governing Fellowship of many of the world's most distinguished scientists drawn from all areas of ...

Efficient liquid cooling supported by reliable instrumentation is essential for data centers to handle increased capacity demands in the age of artificial intelligence (AI) and other heavy compute ...

Temperature and heat are not the same. The temperature of an object is to do with how hot or cold it is. It is measured indegrees Celsius, °C, with a thermometer. Thermal energy is to do with the ...

As the world battles rising inflation, a cost-of-living crisis, climate change and more, it’s clear that the fossil-fueled status quo is not working. Fossil fuels may have seemed like the crutch we ...
