Thermal phenomena refer to the effects of temperature on mechanical responses of microsystems, including thermal strains, coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) variations, and changes in material parameters like Young’s modulus. AI generated definition based on: International Journal of Non-Linear Mecha...
we could significantly slash energy usage in building heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems. In recent years, there has been a surge in advancements in personal thermal management (PTM), aiming to regulate heat
A compressor system’s components will wear out over time due to friction, thermal expansion, and on-off control. Friction wear is a constant problem in this system and exacerbated by temperature fluctuations in the environment and control side. Additionally, leakage of the refrigerant can occur ...
Investments in grid expansion, modernization, and workforce training are essential to overcome technical challenges and facilitate the integration of solar energy systems into the energy landscape. In conclusion, ongoing advancements in PV technologies, solar thermal systems, and energy storage solutions ...
Monitoring of the vital signs or environment of disabled people is currently very popular because it increases their safety, improves their quality of life and facilitates remote care. The article proposes a system for automatic protection against burns based on the detection of thermal threats intende...
LVV has seen a continued expansion. The continued expansion of the valley has seen an increase in salinity released from urban areas in the wastewater effluents released into the lake through the LVW. The rising use of ion-exchange-based water softeners (i.e., salt brines) in homes and ...
The literature describes methods to better systematise the options for thermal energy storage in the structures of different materials; Figure 2 shows a diagram of examples. Figure 2. Summary of thermal energy storage systems in terms of material structures and chemical compounds. Another group of...
Examples could be building heating (25–50 ◦C), building cooling (0–12 ◦C), industrial cooling (less than −18 ◦C), and industrial heat storage (over 175 ◦C) [31]. 2. The state of TES material: a distinction is made between sensible heat storage and latent heat storage...
