Giant radiation heat transfer through micron gaps

Giant heat transfer in the crossover regime between conduction and radiation

Heat is transferred by radiation between two well-separated bodies at temperatures of finite difference in vacuum. At large distances the heat transfer can be described by black body radiation, at shorter distances evanescent modes start to contribute, and at separations comparable to inter-atomic spacing the transition to heat conduction should take place. We report on quantitative measurement...

CuO/ Water Nanofluid Heat Transfer Through Triangular Ducts

Heat and Mass Transfer Analysis on MHD Peristaltic Prandtl Fluid Model through a Tapered Channel with Thermal Radiation

This paper deals with a theoretical investigation of heat and mass transfer with thermal radiation analysis on hydromagnetic peristaltic Prandtl fluid model with porous medium through an asymmetric tapered vertical channel under the influence of gravity field. Analytical results are found for the velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise, frictional force, temperature and concentration. The in...

Radiation Heat Transfer in Combustion Systems

An adequate treatment of thermal radiation heat transfer is essential to a mathematical model of the combustion process or to a design of a combustion system. This paper reviews the fundamentals of radiation heat transfer and some recent progress in its modeling in combustion systems. Topics covered include radiative properties of combustion products and their modeling and methods of solving th...

Radiation transfer through nanoscale apertures

An H-shaped nano-aperture used as a high efficient near-field radiator is demonstrated. The transfer efficiency higher than unity and nanoscale radiation spot can be achieved simultaneously in the near field compared with regular apertures. The radiation enhancement is ascribed to the fundamental electric–magnetic field propagating in the TE10 mode concentrated in the gap between the ridges, wh...
