This paper aims at the transient heat transfer analysis on extended surfaces with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity, constant internal heat generation, and five different geometries. The governing equations developed in this work…
Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) of thin flexible fins coupled with convective heat transfer has applications in energy harvesting and in understanding functioning of several biological systems. We numerically investigate FSI of the thin…
This article is concerned with the shape of small devices used to control the heat flowing between a solid and a fluid phase, usually called \textsl{fin}. The temperature along a fin in stationary regime is modeled by a one-dimensional…
We leverage 3D numerical simulations to study phase change materials (PCMs) cells under the effect of buoyancy forces. The solid PCM is heated from a source boundary, triggering melting. The source features multiple solid fins that protrude…
Convection-diffusion of heat transfer is one of the important phenomena in fluid flow and industrial problems. The involved parameters, boundary conditions, and material properties are greatly affecting the same. As such, the uncertainness…
In the present work, we examine to what degree the heat transfer can be described as developed on a macro-scale level in typical micro- and mini-channels with offset strip fin arrays subject to a uniform heat flux, considering flow entrance…
Evaluation of effective or macroscopic coefficients of thermal conductivity under coupled heat and moisture transfer is presented. The paper first gives a detailed summary on the solution of a simple steady state heat conduction problem…

Since the thermal conduction equation has form invariance under coordinate transformation, one can design thermal metamaterials with novel functions by tailoring materials' thermal conductivities. In this work, we establish a different…
We develop a two-fluid model (TFM) for heat transfer in dense non-Brownian suspensions. Specifically, we propose closure relations for the inter-phase heat transfer coefficient and the thermal diffusivity of the particle phase based on…
When the variations of surface temperature are measured both spatially and temporally, analytical expressions that correctly account for multi-dimensional transient conduction can be applied. To enhance the accessibility of these accurate…
Periodic fin structures are often employed to enhance heat transfer in compact cooling solutions and heat exchangers. Adjoint-based optimization methods are able to further increase the heat transfer by optimizing the fin geometry. However,…

We study the thermal conductance across solid-solid interfaces as the composition of an intermediate matching layer is varied. In absence of phonon-phonon interactions, an added layer can make the interfacial conductance increase or…
