If you're concerned with your homemade cookies spreading on your baking sheet, here's what you should keep in mind about parchment paper and silicone linings.

Superhydrophobic surfaces—those famously "never-wet" materials that make water bead up and roll away—have a stubborn weakness: hot water. Once temperatures climb above roughly 40 degrees Celsius, many ...

Thermal Interface (TIMs) improve energy efficiency by enhancing heat transfer, reducing operational costs, and extending the lifespan of components.

Enabling heat to flow preferentially in one direction could lead to cooler, safer and more reliable electronics. A one-way ...

Passive thermal control relies on design features and materials like insulation layers, reflective coatings, and thermal barriers. Because passive solutions have no moving parts, they require less ...

Abstract: Superconducting magnet is the key component used as the magnetic nozzle to improve the performance of the magnetoelectric thruster. Compared to the traditional copper or permanent magnet, it ...

High-density AI chips run so hot that air cooling isn’t enough. New facilities are turning to liquid cooling. The technique of choice is water evaporation. It’s more effective and energy-efficient ...

In design-forward cities like Inglewood, home upgrades are increasingly about more than appearance. Urban homeowners are ...

All of this is prompting chip designers to explore new strategies to dial down the heat. These include using exotic materials like graphene and diamond, incorporating advanced packaging techniques ...

When we think about heat traveling through a material, we typically picture diffusive transport, a process that transfers heat from high-temperature to low-temperature as particles and molecules bump ...

Ice helps reduce swelling and pain by narrowing blood vessels and limiting blood flow. You can use heat to relax tight muscles and improve blood flow after 48-72 hours of injury. Applying ice for ...

The Conversation reports on winter jackets, blending old physics and modern materials to efficiently trap heat, ensuring ...
