Interactive thermochromic coatings based on Leuco dye are most commonly used in research for building cooling applications. The developed by the authors primarily aimed at industrial applications metal substrates, mainly safety reasons. Thanks to a higher transition temperature associated with significant change shade, they have potential prevent burns and can be as an element of active protect...

A simple method for transistor DC parameter extraction is presented, where the self-heating of the transistor is taken into account. The thermal behaviour of the transistor is modelled using a single thermal resistance, whose value is extracted simultaneously with the electrical parameters. When pulsed measurements are performed the usage of the thermal resistance, as an effective thermal resis...

Research on the steel structures with confining of axial expansion in fixed beams has been quite intensive in the past decade. It is well established that the thermal behaviour has a key influence on steel structural behaviours. This paper describes mechanical behaviour of beams with bolted slant end-plate connection with nonsymmetric gravity load, subjected to temperature increase. Furthermore...

− The paper presents some new measurements and instrumentation paying a special attention to the thermal behaviour of modern manufacturing systems. Acording to a CIRP evaluation, more than 50% of the machining errors, even in the case of modern machine tools, are due to the thermal phenomena. The study of thermal behaviour for machine tools is very important for precision processing, e.g. grind...

Our paper presents a non-destructive thermal transient measurement method that is able to reveal differences even in the micron size range of MEMS structures. Devices of the same design can have differences in their sacrificial layers as consequence of the differences in their manufacturing processes e.g. different etching times. We have made simulations examining how the etching quality reflec...

In this paper we study the thermal effective behaviour for 3D multiphase composite material consisting of three isotropic phases which are the matrix, the inclusions and the coating media. For this purpose we use an accelerated FFT-based scheme initially proposed in Eyre and Milton (1999) to evaluate the thermal conductivity tensor. Matrix and spherical inclusions media are polymers with simila...

Solid state M-L compounds, where M stands for bivalent Mn, Ni, Cu and L is 4-methoxybenzoate, have been synthesized. Simultaneous thermogravimetry – differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray powder diffractometry, infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and complexometry were used to characterize and to study the thermal behaviour of these compounds. The results led to information about t...

The synthesis of sodium 2-chlorobenzylidenepyruvate and its corresponding acid as well as binary, binary together with it’s acid or hydroxo-2-chorobenzylidenepyruvate of aluminium (III), gallium (III) and indium (III), were isolated. Chemical analysis, thermogravimetry, derivative thermogravimetry (TG/DTG), simultaneous thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) and X-ray powder di...

Mathematical treatment of massive wall systems is a useful tool for investigation of these solar applications. The objectives of this work are to develop (and validate) a numerical solution model for predication the thermal behaviour of passive solar systems with massive wall, to improve knowledge of using indirect passive solar systems and assess its energy efficiency according to climatic con...
