The ability to engineer the thermal conductivity of materials allows us to control the flow of heat and derive novel functionalities such as thermal rectification, thermal switching and thermal ...

The operators of a new combined-cycle plant being run in two-shift mode (on 16 hours, off 8) had become used to the cation conductivity sample of the condensate pump discharge being in alarm for a ...

A new study marks a significant step forward in positioning synthetic polymers as an alternative to expensive, unsustainable minerals used in the manufacture of devices such as conductors, transistors ...

Inspired by hierarchical structures found in nature, a research team from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the ...

Chinese manufacturer Coracer has introduced the GPE-01 graphene thermal pads for AMD's AM5 processors, which are currently some of the best CPUs you can buy. Previously, the GPE-01 was compatible only ...

Now, researchers have come up with another set of very surprising findings: The highly periodical structure of spider silk can sustain super fast thermal transport that surpasses those of most organic ...

Electrical conductivity measures the ability of water to conduct an electrical current. The higher the concentration of dissolved charged chemicals (also known as salts) in the water, the greater the ...

As electrons whiz around the nanosized circuits inside computer chips, they generate a lot of heat. And that waste heat creates a major headache for the electronics industry. It shortens the lifespan ...

Inferred pH is a method of continuously calculating pH from straight and cation conductivity. The method is not widely used in the United States, but is popular in Europe. Inferred pH is attractive ...

The quest to maximize electric vehicle efficiency — in driving and charging — and to lower the risk of fires has engineers at automakers and elsewhere looking at everything under the hood, including ...
