... of electrical conductivity effect is considered through proper choice of dimensionless variables. The governing with symmetric equations are developed and three types of thermal boundary conditions are presented. These boundary conditions are isothermal–isothermal, isoflux–isothermal, and isothermal–isoflux...

...Hulin Huang; Bo Li Due to the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effect, which degrades heat transfer coefficients by pulsation suppression of the external magnetic field, on the electrically conducting flow, the wall with nonuniform electrical conductivity is employed in a MHD-flow system for heat transfer...

... pressure transducer, which has ±0.25% accuracy, was calibrated by its manufacturer, Setra. The T-type thermocouples were calibrated within a thermostat distilled water bath and the accuracy can reach 0.1%. The accuracy for the p H meter is ±0.02 and ±0.5% for the electrical conductivity meter...

... conductivity values, which are derived from electrical conductivity measurements after using the Wiedemann–Franz law. Because the technique does not require suspended metal bridges, it captures true metal-dielectric interface scattering characteristics. The technique can be extended to other films that can...

... between nanotubes at the points of contact and between the network and the substrate are accounted for. A variety of test problems are computed for both network transport in the absence of a substrate, as well as for determination of lateral thermal and electrical conductivity in composites. For nanotube...

... that the inclusion of scattering effects reduces the electrical conductivity leading to a significant reduction in the power factor ( S 2 σ ). Temperature-dependent current-voltage characteristics of a silicon thin film for a channel temperature difference of 0 - 30 K without scattering: n = 5...

... the thermal conductivity more than the electrical conductivity, resulting in the Lorenz number being smaller than L 0 . As shown in Fig. 8 , the Lorenz number of the present GMR multilayer structures is nearly equal to L 0 at room temperature and decreases rapidly as the temperature...

... nanostructures (nanotubes, nanowires, and nanobelts) bridging the two membranes. A platinum resistance heater/thermometer is fabricated on each membrane. One membrane can be Joule heated to cause heat conduction through the sample to the other membrane. Thermal conductance, electrical conductance, and Seebeck...
