Carbon nanotube thermal interfaces and related applications
<p>The development of thermal interface materials (TIMs) is necessitated by the temperature drop across interfacing materials arising from macro and microscopic irregularities of their surfaces that constricts heat through small contact regions as well as mismatches in their thermal properties. …

Understanding heat transport at interfaces for thermal management of electronics
… to new challenges on both the electronic and thermal design. While significant progress has been made to understand and engineer the electrical properties of 2D devices, the thermal problems remain relatively poorly understood. Since many 2D electronics can reach very high-power density (>104 …

Two-dimensional Mapping of Interface Thermal Resistance by Transient Thermal Impedance Measurement
Interconnects in power module result in thermal interfaces. The thermal interfaces degrade under thermal cycling, or chemical loading. Moreover, the reliability of thermal interfaces can be especially problematic when the interconnecting area is large, which increases its predisposition to generate …

Analysis and development of particle based heat transport models for use in nanoscale structures.
Thermal management is one of the main issues which must be overcome in order to maintain the continued reduction of feature sizes in silicon microelectronics. The new materials and device architectures which are used to achieve better performance have had a detrimental effect on thermal management …

The mechanics of valve cooling in internal-combustion engines. Investigation into the effect of VSI on the heat flow from valves towards the cooling jacket.
… place along the valve-seat-cylinder head-coolant thermal path which is significantly influenced by the thermal contact resistance (TCR) present at the valve/seat and seat/head interfaces. A test rig facility and experimental procedure were successfully developed to assess the effect of the …
