Due to increasing applications of extended surfaces as passive methods of cooling, study of thermal behaviors and development of mathematical solutions to nonlinear thermal models of extended surfaces have been the subjects of research in cooling technology over the years. In the thermal analysis of fin, various methods have been applied to solve the nonlinear thermal models. This paper focuses...

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "High thermoelectric performance in pseudo quaternary compounds of (PbTe)0.95-x (PbSe)x(PbS)0.05 by simultaneous band convergence and nano precipitation" (Ginting et al., 2017) [1]. We measured electrical and thermal transport properties such as temperature-dependent Hall carrier density nH , Hall mobility μH , ther...

Negative differential thermal resistance (NDTR) can be generated for any one-dimensional heat flow with a temperature-dependent thermal conductivity. In a system-independent scaling analysis, the general condition for the occurrence of NDTR is found to be an inequality with three scaling exponents: n1n2 < −(1 + n3), where n1 ∈ (−∞,+∞) describes a particular way of varying the temperature differ...

An industrial ceramic thermal-barrier coating designated PWA 266, processed by electron-beam physical-vapor deposition, was measured using a steady-state thermal conductivity technique. The thermal conductivity of the mass fraction 7 % yttria-stabilized zirconia coating was measured from 100 °C to 900 °C. Measurements on three thicknesses of coatings, 170 μm, 350 μm, and 510 μm resulted in ther...

We have experimentally investigated the impact of dimensions and temperature on the thermal conductivity of silicon nanowires fabricated using a top-down approach. Both the width and temperature dependences of thermal conductivity agree with those in the existing literature. The length dependence of thermal conductivity exhibits a transition from semi-ballistic thermal phonon transport at 4 K t...

in recent decade, the new advanced nanofluids, composed from various particles, have attracted the attention of researchers. this class of nanofluids, which can be prepared by suspending several types (two or more than two) of nanoparticles in base fluid, is termed as hybrid nanofluids. in this work, an experimental investigation on the effects of temperature and concentration of nanoparticles ...

Experimental results on the temperature-dependent cross-plane thermal conductivity of skutterudite thin films are presented. The films examined include IrSb3, CoSb3, and Ir0.5Co0.5Sb3 single layers, and IrSb3 /CoSb3 superlattices that are grown by pulsed-laser deposition. A differential 3v method is used to measure the cross-plane thermal conductivity of these films from 80 to 300 K. The experi...
