RISPerformance of Near Field Thermophotovoltaic Cells Enhanced With a Backside Reflector
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems are very promising for waste heat recovery. This work analyzes the performance of a nearfield TPV device with a gold reflecting layer on the backside of the cell. The radiative transfer ...
Application Conditions of Effective Medium Theory in Near Field Radiative Heat Transfer Between Multilayered Metamaterials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work addresses the validity of the local effective medium theory (EMT) in predicting the nearfield radiative heat transfer between multilayered metamaterials, separated by a vacuum gap. Doped silicon and germanium are ...
