The researchers studied how electric current created heat flows in a lithium-ion battery cell. The heat flowed opposite to electric current, resulting in a higher temperature on the side where current ...

New cooling technology is one of the more exciting things we can hear about in the world of PC hardware in my opinion. Not only can it apply to so many different components—though chiefly the CPU—but ...

A new quantum transport theory reveals how femtosecond time scale thermoelectric fluctuations influence energy control at the nanoscale. The University of Jyväskylä, Finland, has contributed to the ...

Anyone who's taken a hands-on course in electric circuits knows that resistors warm when conducting current. The amount of heat is proportional to the product of the resistance and the square of the ...

Thermoelectric materials have garnered significant interest due to their inherent ability to directly convert thermal gradients into electrical energy and vice versa. At the heart of this technology ...

How do you keep a few sodas in your classroom cool? Well, if you are teacher [Ethan Hunt], you have your students design and build a solid-state mini refrigerator that can beat his prototype fridge.

Thermoelectric coolers (TECs) are versatile temperature-control devices. They’re best thought of as solid-state heat pumps in which the direction and rate of heat flow can be manipulated by ...

Motherboards Best gaming motherboards in 2025: these are the AMD and Intel mobos I'd build a system around today Graphics Cards Best graphics cards in 2025: I've tested pretty much every AMD and ...

1. NIMS has succeeded in directly observing the "anisotropic magneto-Thomson effect," a phenomenon in which the heat absorption/release proportional to an applied temperature difference and charge ...
