Paraffin wax has been exploited in microactuators because it exhibits a volumetric expansion of ∼15%, at around its melting point. In order to nderstand paraffin wax actuation, for the first time, the melting process has been investigated using a combination of analytical modelling (using tefan’s problem and Neumann’s solution), finite element method (FEM) simulations and actuation data from me...

The cycle life and thermal safety of lithium-iron-phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries are important factors restricting the popularization new energy vehicles. study aims to prevent battery overheating, prolong power improve their by discussing heat production LiFePO4 solve problem temperature rise in natural-convection environment cut consumption liquid cooling system. A numerical simulation experim...

In the course of the past five years in experiments on 188 animals, we have succeeded in producing twenty-three cases of cancroid and adeno-cancroid resembling that observed in man. These epithelioniata were produced by injection of liquid tar extract, pure tar, mixture of tar and lanolin, liquid paraffin containing tar, olive oil, or liquid paraffin, in the doses of from 0.3 to 0.5 cc., into t...
