In classical physics, anything driven hard enough will eventually heat up, lose coherence, and settle into disorder. A new ...

Control of heat flow is crucial for thermal logic devices and thermal management, with theoretical exploration preceding limited experimental progress in actively controlling heat flow. The device ...

A rare mineral from a 1724 meteorite defies the rules of heat flow, acting like both a crystal and a glass. Thanks to AI and quantum physics, researchers uncovered its bizarre ability to maintain ...

Light exposure switches heat flow in barium titanate by altering its structure, offering a reversible method for dynamic thermal control in ferroelectric materials. (Nanowerk Spotlight) We can switch ...

For much of my career, I have been fascinated by the ways in which materials behave when we reduce their dimensions to the nanoscale. Over and over, I've learned that when we shrink a material down to ...

Air recirculation in ventilation systems is essentially the mixing of a certain amount of exhaust air into the supply air. This process provides a reduction in energy consumption when heating fresh ...
