Abstract: A model is developed for determining the ideal operating point, based on maximum power output, for a thermoelectric conversion (TEC) element coupled to a combustor. In the analysis, heat ...

Abstract: An experimental technique based on the thermal wave approach for measuring the thermal conductivity of liquids is developed in this paper. A stainless steel strip functions as both a heating ...

Abstract: This study explores the use of a thermal wave approach for flow field measurement applications, such as flow diagnostics near surfaces and in microfluidic systems. The basic mathematical ...
