To gain control over the diffusive heat flux in a given domain, one needs to engineer a thermal metamaterial with a specific distribution of the generally anisotropic thermal conductivity throughout the domain. Until now, ...

The correct estimation of Sensible Heat Flux (H) and Latent Heat Flux (LE) (i.e., turbulent fluxes) is vital in the understanding of exchange of energy and mass among hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere in an ecosystem. ...

In this work, we present a new method for the design of heat flux manipulating devices, with emphasis on their manufacturability. The design is obtained as solution of a nonlinear optimization problem where the objective ...

The selection of the best type of building envelope wall for a given location and the calculation of the heat flux exchanged with the exterior environment are key issues in avoiding undesirable heat losses and gains, thus ...

This paper analyses the free convection flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past an infinite vertical accelerated plate embedded in porous medium with constant heat flux in the presence of transverse magnetic field. ...

The understanding of latent and sensible heat fluxes (LHF and SHF, respectively) is essential to improve our knowledge on how the atmosphere and oceans interact. In this work we identified trends of LHF and SHF in the South ...

At mid-latitudes, sea water temperature shows a strong seasonal cycle forced by the incident surface heat flux. As depth decreases, the heat flux incidence is damped by the horizontal flux, which prevents the indefinite ...

Heat fluxes between the ocean and the atmosphere largely represent the link between the two media. A possible mechanism of interaction is generated by mesoscale ocean eddies. In this work we evaluate if eddies in Southwestern ...
