New work could help design electronic devices in which heat can be guided in certain directions, minimizing heat loss ...

To become an ideal thermal fluid user, it is important to formulate a best practice guide on how to be a more effective, efficient, and responsible use of thermal fluid systems. This is not just for ...

Helicity is, like energy, a quadratic invariant of the Euler equations of ideal fluid flow, although, unlike energy, it is not sign definite. In physical terms, it represents the degree of linkage of ...

Yet much remains unknown about the Euler equations—including whether they’re always an accurate model of ideal fluid flow. One of the central problems in fluid dynamics is to figure out if the ...

Editor’s note: The Basics department this month is an excerpt from the ISA book Flow of Industrial Fluids – Theory and Equations by Raymond Mulley. Some material in this section may seem self-evident ...

The invisibility cloak is an artefact that can make the wearer transparent, rendering it undetectable to observers outside. Perhaps, one of the most well-known examples is the invisibility cloak ...
