Effective thermal conductivity of various filling materials for vacuum insulation panels

Js Kwon Jae-Sung Kwon, +3 more
- 01 Nov 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this article, three thermal transport mechanisms of various filling materials for VIPs are theoretically investigated with special emphasis on the solid conduction, and the results show that the solid conductivities of the fiber and staggered beam insulation are lower than those of the powder and foam due to the relatively long thermal path.
Journal ArticleDOI

- 19 Jul 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the physical properties and properties of nanofluids can be found in the context of heat transfer models and their application in a variety of applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engineering microfluidic concentration gradient generators for biological applications

Alicia G. G. Toh, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: A review of the latest developments in the design and fabrication of concentration gradient generators for microfluidics-based biological applications can be found in this paper, where new gradient generator designs and their underlying mass transport principles are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Resonant Micromachined Magnetic Field Sensor

Behraad Bahreyni, +1 more
- 23 Jul 2007 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the design, modeling, and simulation of a novel micromachined magnetic field sensor is discussed, which uses an electrostatic resonator whose fundamental resonant frequency is modified by a Lorentz force generated from the interaction of the sensor structure and the present magnetic field.
