The conventional plastic shown on the left can't spread or dissipate heat, resulting in a localized hot spot. A new family of polymers from Cool Polymers Inc., Warwick, R.I., can replace metal, ...

With electronic devices gaining power and losing bulk, design engineers have really started to feel the heat. Thermal management once meant a few well-placed fans, vents, and aluminum heat sinks. But ...

Enabling heat to flow preferentially in one direction could lead to cooler, safer and more reliable electronics. A one-way ticket for thermal radiative heat transfer, based on thermal rectification ...

Hollow graphene aerogel fibers mimicking polar bear hair achieve record-low thermal conductivity and high electrical ...

Lithium batteries power an expanding range of technologies, from electric vehicles and commercial transportation fleets to stationary energy storage systems and grid-scale backup power installations.

With the PhaseSheet PTM, Thermal Grizzly Holding GmbH presents an electrically non-conductive thermal pad based on a phase change material (PCM). With PhaseSheet PTM, Thermal Grizzly closes the gap ...

Thermal Conduction is a “hot” topic! Dr. Rob and the Crew explore how thermal energy is transferred and conserved in different environments. STEM Challenge: Making Thermal Oobleck Curious About ...
