University of Texas at Dallas researchers developed a new theory to explain heat transfer on advanced surfaces. From left are: Dr. Xianming (Simon) Dai, associate professor of mechanical engineering; ...

Winter jackets may seem simple, but sophisticated engineering allows them to keep body heat locked in, while staying breathable enough to let out sweat.

A heat pump doesn't generate heat; it transfers it from one place to another. It's an appliance with a bright future in an ...

(Nanowerk News) As consumer electronics become ever more compact, while still boasting increased processing power, the need to manage waste heat from microcircuits has grown to become a major concern.

If you’re considering a new heating and cooling system, you’ve likely come across heat pumps. They’ve been around for over a century, but in 2020, they officially surpassed gas furnaces in sales.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Supacolor, makers of The World's Best Heat Transfer™, has announced that their Supafam will now be able to submit multiple designs (a process known as ganging) on a ...

This video explains why certain animals sploot, a behavior where they stretch out flat to release excess body heat. It explores the biological mechanics that make this position an effective cooling ...

Zero-thermal-expansion (ZTE) materials are widely used in precision optics, cryogenic equipment and sensors, where even small ...

Researchers at The University of Tokyo demonstrate enhanced radiative heat transfer across a gap between two micro-sized silicon plates by coating them with a layer of silicon dioxide, which may ...
