As designers evolve facade details to reduce heat flows, features such as corners and junctions between building elements, are of increasing importance. Groups such as the PassivHaus Institute view thermal bridges and junctions in constructions as often exceeding the thermal impact of primary facade elements. This suggests more rigorous approaches...

... also introduces a gap between the roof zone and the occupied zone (as in Figure 4) which is in line with 3D CAD data and the emerging attributes of building information management initiatives. To approximate the 3D geometry of an actual roof takes us a number of steps away from Figure 1 in order to reach the roof overhang in Figure 5. Note that this introduces a new boundary condition for the upper portion of the exterior walls. ...

A heat pipe is a self-operating device which is capable of transferring large amounts of heat with a minimum temperature differences between the hot end (evaporator) and the cold end (condenser). However, a limited number of research work or analysis [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] has been reported in automotive industry on the applications of heat pipes in p...

The dissolution process of delta ferrites and the influence of high temperature pre-deformation on the dissolution rate of delta ferrites in martensitic heat-resistant steel 10Cr12Ni3Mo2VN were studied by isothermal heating and thermal simulation experiments. The precipitation temperature of delta ferrites in experimental steel is about 1195 °C. M2...

Nowadays, thermal flow simulation based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is applied to the thermal design of electronic equipment. In this paper, we discuss the applicability of the multiple reference frame (MRF) approach, which is a new method for modeling an axial cooling fan, to the thermal flow simulation of electronic equipment using the...

Heat removal is one of the major challenges faced in developing the new generation of high density integrated circuits. Future design technologies strongly depend on the availability of efficient means for thermal modeling and analysis. These thermal models must be also accurate and provide the most efficient level of abstraction enabling fast exec...

Wire scanners and secondary emission (SEM) grids are used for measurements of transverse beam profile at the ISIS neutron and muon source. Silicon carbide-coated carbon fibre wires are used in profile monitors throughout the ISIS accelerator. One such SEM grid is currently installed close to the target in Extracted Proton Beamline 2 (EPB2) and is i...
