Abstract: Residual stresses are caused by nonuniform thermal expansion and chemical shrinkage taking place during processing. For thin-film high-temperature superconductors, residual stresses result because ...

Abstract: Nanofluids are colloidal solutions, which contain a small volume fraction of suspended submicron particles or fibers in heat transfer liquids such as water or glycol mixtures. Compared with the ...

Abstract: A testing procedure was developed for determining thermal conductivity

Abstract: Increasingly, military and civilian applications of electronics require extremely high-heat fluxes on the order of 1000 W/cm2. Thermal management solutions for these severe operating conditions are ...
