Abstract: Recent advances in compact thermal models have led to the emergence of a new concept allowing models to be created at any desired order of accuracy. Traditionally, increasing precision was ...

Abstract: Heat transfer in micro-channels, used as an efficient cooling method for electronic circuits, is revisited. Channel walls act as a fin conveying heat to the cooling fluid. The relatively low ...

Abstract: Large progress has been realized in modeling conduction heat transfer problems over the past decade by the introduction of high performance compact thermal models (CTMs) mainly developed for ...

Abstract: Mohamed-Nabil Sabry serving as the special guest editor for the issue. The ThETA I executive committee consisted of Bernard Courtois, TIMA Lab., Grenoble, France, Yogendra Joshi, Georgia Inst. Technology, USA, Waturu Nakayama...

Abstract: presented at the conference, and deemed worthy of archival publication in the JEP after the papers were reviewed again by the JEP with Professor Mohamed-Nabil Sabry serving as the special guest editor for the issue. The Th...

Abstract: This special issue of the Journal of Heat Transfer contains six papers selected out of the 53 presented at the Second International Conference on Thermal Issues in Emerging Technologies, Theory ...

Abstract: The construction and usage of compact thermal models (CTMs), for the thermal analysis as well as the design of cooling devices for electronic systems, are reviewed. These models have many ...
