in order to decrease water consumption in agricultural sector, deficit irrigation has been suggested. for preventing a heavy loss in crop yield, management of water stress is essential. common methods for measuring plant water stress such as stomatal conductance are time-consuming and require specialized labor and a large number of measurement. temperature of leaf or canopy surface can be an in...

thermal contact conductance (tcc) between an exhaust valve and its seat is one of the important parameters to be estimated in an internal combustion engine. an experimental study presented here to acquire temperature in some interior points to be used as inputs to an inverse analysis. an actual exhaust valve and its seat are utilized in a designed and constructed setup. conjugate gradient metho...

Measurements of the thermal properties of nanoscale electron systems have ignored the effect of electrical noise radiated between the electron gas and the environment, through the electrical leads. Here we calculate the effect of this photon-mediated process, and show that the low-temperature thermal conductance is equal to the quantum of thermal conductance, GQ = pi2kB2T/3h, times a coupling c...

In internal combustion engines, exhaust valve and its seat gain considerable temperature as the hot gases exit through them. So, the rate of heat transfer should be under control. In this study, the contact heat transfer coefficient has been estimated. An experimental study on an Air-Cooled internal combustion engine cylinder head has been considered. Using the measured temperatures of sensors ...

In 1983 J Pendry published a paper on the quantum limits to the flow of information and entropy [Pendry'83]. In it he showed that there is an inequality that limits the flow of information as a function of the energy flow. He applied this relationship to calculate the limit on the rate of heat flow in a channel and found that this had to be 1 2 2 3 1 − ≤ h T kB π where kB is Boltzmann constant ...

: We present phonon thermal conductance calculations for silicon nanowires (SiNWs) with diameters ranging from 1 to 5 nm with and without vacancy defects by the non-equilibrium Green's function technique using the interatomic Tersoff-Brenner potentials. For the comparison, we also present phonon thermal conductance calculations for diamond nanowires. For two types of vacancy defects in the SiNW...
