The separator is a critical, multi-functional component of a Li-ion cell that plays a key role in performance and safety during energy conversion and storage processes. Heat flow through the separator is important for minimizing cell temperature and avoiding thermal runaway. Despite the critical nature of thermal conduction through the separator, very little research has been reported on unders...

nanofluids are gaining much importance over the past decade due to their enhanced thermal conductivity, specific heat, cooling capacity, electrical conductivities. novel properties of nanofluids are yet to be explored to the highest potential applications. one of the prominent applications of nanofluids is in thermal conduction. the presence of nanoparticle in a fluid can enhance the thermal co...

In this article the place and capacity of combined heat and power [CHP] prediction unit wasdetermined dynamically with use of modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO). It was done inoptimization palace and with a capacity of CHP as a production resource with the aim to increasethe reliability capacity. Decrease the loss and provide the electrical and thermal energies ofindustrial city. The f...

A new type of lightweight plaster with the thermal capacity enhanced by PCM (Phase Change Material) addition is analyzed. The basic physical characteristics, namely the bulk density, matrix density, total open porosity, and pore size distribution are measured at first. For description of mechanical properties, compressive strength measurements are done. The thermal properties are characterized ...

The quantum capacity of thermal noise channel (which is addressed as Gaussian quantum channel before) is studied, it turns out to be the maximum of the coherent information of a single use of the channel. The quantum capacity is achieved when the input state is a thermal noise state with infinitive energy. The capacity is achievable with quantum error-correction code. The quantum capacities of ...

Eggs of intermittently incubating birds are periodically rewarmed by a transient pulse of heat from the parent's brood patch. Estimating the energy cost of rewarming such an egg requires knowledge of the egg's thermal capacity, typically assumed to be the product of the egg's mass and its specific heat, designated here as the gravimetric thermal capacity. When chicken eggs are transiently warme...
