Understanding Conduction and the Heat Equation
Continuing the heat transfer series, in this video we take a look at conduction and the heat equation. Fourier's law is used ...
Yongjie Hu, who leads a team of scientists at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering, wanted to understand heat transfer between aluminum and a prototype 2D material called black phosphorous. This ...
For the project, the 2D material Ti 3 C 2 was used – this is a ‘MXene’, which is a class of conductive 2D material. Being electrically conductive, it could be both heater and temperature sensor – ...
The course begins with the general definition of heat in thermodynamics following Helmholtz. Next, conservation equations for mass, heat, linear momentum, and angular momentum will be described. The ...
