New technology from University of Houston researchers could improve the way devices manage heat, thanks to a technique that ...

Efficient management and exploitation of thermal energy is key for many engineering applications. Greater understanding and control of thermal processes, such as thermal energy harvesting, storage and ...

Historically, computer-aided design (CAD) is a democratic field. Engineers were seeking a means of sharing their designs in the same way that they would blueprints or circuit designs on paper half a ...

A major challenge in thermal-management and thermal-insulation technologies, across multiple industries, is the lack of ...

Fluid mechanics and thermal engineering concern the behaviour of liquids and gases in motion and the management of thermal energy within those flows. Central to fluid mechanics are the conservation ...

Tesla on Friday sued a former thermal engineer for trade-secret theft. The company accused its ex-employee, Alexander Yatskov, of transferring confidential information from Tesla’s network to his ...

The University of Manchester's National Graphene Institute has spearheaded an international team to engineer a novel approach for controlling thermal emission, detailed in a paper published in Science ...

The research of the Multiscale Thermal Science Laboratory (MTSL) focuses on the fundamental understanding of thermal transport phenomena at the interfaces between material phases and from macro to ...

When Stephanie Mauro was in high school, she always thought it would be cool to work in the space industry. “But I never really thought that I would just because it seems so far-fetched,” said Mauro ...

Inside a burning building, the smoke often gets so thick and oppressive that firefighters can’t see their hands if they wave them in front of their facemasks. The roiling black clouds obscure ...

Researchers at Yonsei University have unveiled a breakthrough “thermal sponge” capable of slashing annual ...

If a material absorbs light, it will heat up. That heat must go somewhere, and the ability to control where and how much heat is emitted can protect or even hide such devices as satellites. An ...
