The divergence of the thermal conductivity in the thermodynamic limit is thoroughly investigated. The divergence law is consistently determined with two different numerical approaches based on equilibrium and non-equilibrium simulations. A…
We derive a refraction law for superconducting vortices at superconductor/normal metal interfaces. Simulations of the proximity effect under tilted geometries confirm this law and reveal vortex trapping for low effective mass. Under…
We study the Radiative Transfer equations coupled with the time dependent temperature equation of a fluid: existence, uniqueness, a maximum principle are established. A short numerical section illustrates the pros and cons of the method.
The flow of fluid confined between a heated rotating cylinder and a cooled stationary cylinder is a canonical experiment for the study of heat transfer in engineering. The theoretical treatment of this system is greatly simplified if the…
Light has a fascinating property: it always travels the path that takes the least time between any two points. This is the motivating property behind optical phenomena such as Reflection and Refraction. The unreasonable economic efficiency…
A rainbow is a captivating natural phenomenon resulting from the refraction, dispersion, and reflection of sunlight within water droplets. Traditional classroom demonstrations often focus on qualitative explanations of the formation of…
The clearing up of a wave nature of the energy and mass transfer phenomena in classical expressions of the molecular-kinetic theory has allowed to find a quantitative measure of intensity of processes of a thermal conductivity, viscosity…
We present a new relation between the short time behavior of the heat flow, the geometry of optimal transport and the Ricci flow. We also show how this relation can be used to define an evolution of metrics on non-smooth metric measure…
Relativistic heat transport in electron-two-temperature plasmas with density gradients has been investigated. The Legendre expansion analysis of relativistically modified kinetic equations shows that strong inhibition of heat flux appears…
This paper revisits the problem of heat conduction in relativistic fluids, associated with issues concerning both stability and causality. It has long been known that the problem requires information involving second order deviations from…
In this work we study the role of the heat diffusion equation in simulating the resistive state of superconducting films. By analyzing the current-voltage and current-resistance characteristic curves for temperatures close to $T_c$ and…
We measure the thermal conductivity of solid and molten tungsten using Steady State Temperature Differential Radiometry. We demonstrate that the thermal conductivity can be well described by application of Wiedemann-Franz Law to electrical…
We report the results of high resolution direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection for Rayleigh numbers up to $\Ra=10^{10}$ in order to study the influence of temperature boundary conditions on turbulent…
We demonstrate that non-diffusive, fluid-like heat transport, such as heat backflowing from cooler to warmer regions, can be induced, controlled, and amplified in extreme thermal conductors such as graphite and hexagonal boron nitride. We…
We analyze the short-time behavior of the heat and charge currents through nanoscale conductors exposed to a temperature gradient. To this end, we employ Luttinger's thermomechanical potential to simulate a sudden change of temperature at…
Data-driven flow control has significant potential for industry, energy systems, and climate science. In this work, we study the effectiveness of Reinforcement Learning (RL) for reducing convective heat transfer in the 2D Rayleigh-B\'enard…
In this paper we show how using a relativistic kinetic equation the ensuing expression for the heat flux can be casted in the form required by Classical Irreversible Thermodynamics. Indeed, it is linearly related to the temperature and…
We consider the reflection of relativistically strong radiation from plasma and identify the physical origin of the electrons' tendency to form a thin sheet, which maintains its localisation throughout its motion. Thereby we justify the…
Starting from a classical thermodynamic approach, we derive rate-type equations to describe the behavior of heat flow in deformable media. Constitutive equations are defined in the material (Lagrangian) description where the standard time…
The purpose of this work is to produce a family of equations describing the evolution of the temperature in a rigid heat conductor. This is obtained by means of successive approximations of the Fourier law, via memory relaxations and…
