Numerical study of macroscopic thermal diodes: influence of interface topography and contact resistance
We continue our exploration of solid-state thermal diodes – a compact, fully passive asset for next-generation thermal management.
Our latest paper, “Numerical study of macroscopic thermal diodes: influence of interface topography and contact resistance,” has just been published in iScience (IF 4.1).

Performance of the Condensation Process on Vertical Plates and Horizontal Tubes
The condensation of humid air is a crucial step in air conditioning and process engineering. However, the models that describe the condensation of vapour in the presence of a non-condensable gas require time-consuming numerical calculations that go beyond the Nusselt film theory. Only a small number of publications exist, where Read more…
