Assessing individual components is the foremost step in system thermal analysis. A component's reported thermal-resistance data becomes the gauge for thermal evaluation and management. It is therefore ...

Are your environmental test results exposing true device weaknesses, or just reflecting extreme stress conditions?

In materials science, thermal testing refers to the process of subjecting materials to analysis through thermal control in order to collect data on a wide range of properties. Generally, thermal ...

Have you ever wondered what journey a piece of equipment or machinery took before ending up in space? Or what testing was done before the rocket’s blastoff? Or why a piece of equipment failed ...

Why is this type of thermal switch needed? How the ceramic material and structure was developed for superior performance. The results achieved with this material and arrangement. Many engineers are ...

Key research finding: Modern devices that use lithium ion batteries, like smartphones and electric cars, seem pretty robust. But try to use one in extreme heat or cold, and you’ll see how susceptible ...

Heatsink technology has rapidly improved over the last few years. The introduction of heatpipes, use of large radius fans and the sophisticated mounting mechanisms have all aided these developments.
