Abstract:
Recent experiments have shown that thermal conductivity of carbon nanotubes can be more than twice that of diamond. It should be noted that high mechanical strength often comes with high thermal conductivities. Recent experiments have shown that the thermal conductivity of carbon nanotubes can be as high as 3000 to 6000 W/m K at room temperature, which is more than twice that of diamond. It was recently shown by Alex Zettl and his group at the University of California, Berkeley that the relative motion between different shells of multiwall carbon nanotubes has some unique properties and can serve as excellent mechanical bearings that do not undergo any wear. Recent work has led to multifunctional probes, which, besides topography, can detect thermal, electrical, magnetic, and optical signals at nanoscales. The engineering challenge now is to develop microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based probes that integrate multiple functions on a single tip.

Abstract:
The aim of the research was to select and evaluate polymers that could be used as rotor insulation in electric motors based on Halbach array system. Which have specific material properties, such as high mechanical strength, high thermal resistance and, especially, high thermal conductivity, also at room and at elevated temperatures. Three high performance polymers were selected for the research: polyetheretherketone (PEEK), polyamideimide (PAI) and poly(p-phenylene sulphide) (PPS). Polymers were evaluated for mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, specific heat capacity, linear thermal expansion and also differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetry (TG) analyses were carried out. Analyses are proved that all materials have appropriate properties for advanced electric motor insulator.

Abstract:
Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Mechanical Engineering, May, 2020<br>Cataloged from the official PDF of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (pages 224-239).<br>Increasing energy efficiency for power generation and reduction of energy consumption are two important venues to address the energy supply and global warming challenges we face today. Radiation from the sun and terrestrial heat sources can be harvested for power generation. It is also an important heat transfer channel, with which one can control in order to regulate the temperature of objects. In this thesis, we focus on strategies to harvest and control solar and thermal radiation, with the goals (1) to improve power generation efficiency using solar and thermal photovoltaics and (2) to reduce the energy consumption used to maintain human comfort in built environments. Solar radiation, as one of the most abundant energy sources on Earth, is now harvested by photovoltaics around the world. While solar photovoltaics already has reached considerable efficiencies, there is still room for improvement.<br>One fundamental limit in solar photovoltaics is the discard of photons with energy smaller than the material bandgap. Another challenge for solar PVs, due to the intermittent nature of solar power, is the lack of low-cost electricity storage systems that provide electricity on-demand. Solar thermal systems, on the other hand, can dispatch energy on-demand due to low-cost of thermal storage systems. Hybrid systems that combine solar PV and solar thermal systems can potentially harvest solar energy at higher efficiency and provide more dispatchable sources of energy. In the first part of my thesis, we designed and experimentally tested a spectral-selective, thermally-conductive component to be used in such hybrid solar-PV thermal system.<br>The component can direct part of the solar spectrum to the photovoltaics and to absorb the rest of the spectrum for use in a thermal system, thereby harvesting the entire solar spectrum with an energy conversion efficiency close to 23%, and with over 40% dispatchable electricity generated from thermal energy. The photovoltaic energy conversion efficiency can also improve by recycling photons with energy smaller than the material bandgap. In a thermo-photovoltaic system, low-energy photons can be designed to reflect back to the radiation source, and therefore energy carried by these photons can be re-used. Thermo-photovoltaic devices also showed great potential to provide low-cost, dispatachable electricity when combined with high-temperature thermal storage systems and concentrated solar power. In the second part of my thesis, we have designed and optimized a practical, crystalline-Si based thermo-photovoltaic cell to be fabricated on double-side polished wafers.<br>The Si-based TPV cell, combined with a 2300K gray radiator, can potentially reach 40% energy conversion efficiency. We have evaluated and optimized the Si-TPV performance with comprehensive considerations of components in the photovoltaic cell, including doping and junction depth, front and back surface field, passivation layer, back reflector, front metallization, as well as tolerance to roughness introduced in fabrication. Experimental tests have been conducted on doped Si samples with back reflectors, and identified potential pathways to further reduce optical and electrical losses. The maturity of the Si PV technologies and its relatively low cost points to great promise of high-efficiency thermo-photovoltaic devices for high-temperature thermal energy storage. Thermal radiation is also integral to the regulation of heat balance and temperatures of human body. Spaces in built environments are typically kept at near-ambient temperatures for human thermal comfort.<br>However, heating and cooling of spaces consume 40% of the total energy used in the US. Instead of regulating temperature in vast spaces, local regulation of heat near human bodies can potentially save large amounts of energy. In the third part of my thesis, we study the use of fabrics to regulate skin temperatures of the human body by controlling the input and output radiation channels of the human skin, an important yet largely under-studied channel for body temperature regulation. We then propose desired spectral properties of fabrics for both heating and cooling purposes, and in both indoor and outdoor environments. Finally, we investigate via both simulation and experiments, how morphology and material of polymer-based fabrics can be used to achieve the desired spectral properties.<br>by Yi Huang.<br>Ph.

Abstract:
<p> Thermal bridging through structural steel members in building envelopes poses issues with heat loss and condensation in cold regions. Structural steel thermal breaks, taking the form of low-thermal conductivity, high-strength and stiffness materials placed between the faying surfaces of a steel connection, serve to reduce heat flow through the steel element and have seen extensive use in the construction industry. However, current steel construction code provisions in the US prohibit the use of compressible materials in a steel connection. While the practical benefits of thermal breaks in structural steel beams and columns have been well demonstrated, there is a lack of guidance on the structural design of these thermal breaks, as well as a yet undetermined thermal efficacy of thermal break design parameters.</p><p> The objective of this thesis was to determine the thermal and mechanical behavior of structural steel beam thermally broken connections and continuous beam thermal bridges. Heat flow through a thermally broken steel end-plate connection was determined experimentally using a calibrated hot box. Results were used to validate a finite element heat transfer model, which was used to perform a parametric analysis on the thermal break using different break and bolt materials. From the analyses, it was determined that the thickness of the break is effective in reducing heat flow and condensation potential. The use of stainless steel or fiber-reinforced bolts provides a significant reduction in heat flow and condensation potential. The mechanical behavior of the thermally-broken connection was analyzed using cantilever bending tests and shear tests on an identical set of connections using three different thicknesses of neoprene pad. Results showed that the rotational stiffness of the connection was reduced approximately linearly with increasing neoprene pad thickness. Shear deflection stiffness was reduced exponentially with increased pad thickness. Structural experimental results were validated against a finite element model which was used to investigate stresses in the end-plate and the bolt. Bolt rupture was found to occur at a reduced applied bending moment due to the increased rotation of the end-plate due to the soft intermediate layer of neoprene between the end-plate and the connection member.</p>

Abstract:
The purpose of this research is to investigate human comfort criteria under steady-state conditions as a function of ambient air temperature, mean radiant temperature, relative humidity, air velocity, level of activity, and clothing insulation. Since the current ASHRAE Standard 55-1994 is for sedentary activity, this study will consider relative humidity (20% to 65%), dry bulb temperature (73 oF to 82 oF), air velocity (30 fpm and 50 fpm), and sedentary-to-moderate activity. The mean radiant temperature will be taken to be the same as the ambient air temperature. The experimental results collected at the Kansas State University Environmental Test Chamber are compared with the Fanger (1982) thermal comfort model and with ASHRAE Standard 55-1994. The experimental study results agreed well with ASHARE Standard 55-1994 for 1-met activity level (sedentary), and the thermal comfort for 1-met activity level was predicted with reasonable accuracy by Fanger?s (1982) Model. For 2.3 met activity level, the experimental results did not agree with ASHRAE Standard 55-1994 or the Fanger Model predictions.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2004.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 65-67).<br>Contact thermal lithography is a method for fabricating microscale patterns using heat transfer. In contrast to photolithography, where the minimum achievable feature size is proportional to the wavelength of light used in the exposure process, thermal lithography is limited by a thermal diffusion length scale and the geometry of the situation. In this thesis the basic principles of thermal lithography are presented. A traditional chrome-glass photomask is brought into contact with a wafer coated with a thermally sensitive polymer. The mask-wafer combination is flashed briefly with high intensity light, causing the chrome features heat up and conduct heat locally to the polymer, transferring a pattern. Analytic and finite element models are presented to analyze the heating process and select appropriate geometries and heating times. In addition, an experimental version of a contact thermal lithography system has been constructed and tested. Early results from this system are presented, along with plans for future development.<br>by Aaron Jerome Schmidt.<br>S.M.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2012.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 86-88).<br>In concentrated solar power (CSP) systems, high temperature heat transfer fluids (HTFs) are responsible for collecting energy from the sun at the solar receiver and transporting it to the turbine where steam is produced and electricity is generated. Unfortunately, many high temperature HTFs have poor thermal properties that inhibit this process, including specific heat capacities which are half that of water. In an effort to enhance the effective heat capacity of these high temperature HTFs and thus increase the efficiency of the CSP systems, adsorption energy at the liquid-solid interface was investigated as a mechanism for increased thermal capacity. Solid ceramic nanoparticles were dispersed in several molten salts at 1-2% by mass with diameters ranging from 5 nm to 15 nm to provide a significant available surface area for adsorption at the particle-molten salt interface. After successful nanofluid synthesis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to measure anomalous deviations from the expected heat capacity and enthalpy of fusion values in the nanofluids. The variation in the sensible and latent heat values was determined to be dependent on the presence of sub-100 nm particles and attributed to a layer of salt that remains adsorbed to the surface of the nanoparticles after the bulk of the salt has melted. The adsorbed salt layer is expected to desorb at a higher temperature, providing an increased effective thermal capacity in the vicinity of this desorption temperature. A thermal analysis technique utilizing DSC was proposed to approximate the thickness of the adsorbed layer at the liquid-solid interface, a value that has previously only been obtained using simulation or transmission electron microscopy. More specifically, the adsorbed layer of LiNO3 on Al2O3 particles was determined to be 5.3-7.1 nm thick, similar to the 1-3 nm layers that have been observed in literature for simple, monatomic fluids. The results provide new insight into the nature of adsorption at the liquid-solid interface in more complex fluid and particle systems that can be harnessed for enhanced thermal capacity in HTFs.<br>by Matthew W.

In order to increase the drive range of EVs, replacing heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system with a novel absorbent system of materials and methods is widely investigated. This work focuses on the analysis of the design of such a system to suggest efficiency improvements. The thermal insulation and choice of pump required for the optimal function of the adsorptive bed that carries the novel material are analyzed respectively to understand system performance. A thermal resistance analysis was performed in order to understand the undesirable heat loss from the system that decreases the efficiency. Moreover, pressure loss in the piping system was determined theoretically to choose a compatible pump. This analysis also resulted in a modular code that can be used to test different design parameters for future work,<br>by Feyza Haskaraman.<br>S.B.

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2013.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 109-112).<br>Scientists, both academic and industrial, develop two main types of drugs: 1) small molecule drugs, which are usually chemically synthesized and are taken orally and 2) large molecule, biotherapeutic, or protein-based drugs, which are often synthesized via ribosome transcription in bacteria cells and are injected. Historically, the majority of drug development, revenue, and products has come from small molecule drugs. However, recently biotherapeutic drugs have become more common due to their increased potency and specificity (the ability to chemically bond to the targeted protein of interest). Researchers now estimate that as much as 50% of current drug development activities (pre-market approval) are focused on these protein-based drugs. There are several well-documented steps necessary in the development of a new large molecule drug. One critical element during the end of the biotherapeutic drug discovery phase and the beginning of the manufacturing phase is known as preformulation or formulation development. During this stage scientists systematically test the effects of adding various excipients (non-protein additives added to enhance the protein stability, solubility, activity of the drug, etc.) to the potential large molecule drug. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a common technique used to perform these formulation studies. In a classic DSC experiment, a protein is heated from 20-80°C and the heat absorbed while the protein unfolds is measured. Many researchers prefer the use of a DSC instrument because of its label-free nature, meaning that no fluorescent or radio-labeled tag is necessary to perform the measurement. The heat absorbed during the unfolding event(s) is directly measured. However, current commercial DSC instruments suffer from high protein consumption (especially when compared to other labeled techniques), low sensitivity, and slow throughput. The aim of this thesis is to address two of the three areas mentioned above: high protein consumption and slow throughput. Since many formulation development studies are performed at therapeutic or high protein concentrations, one can reduce the experimental cell volume and thereby reduce the amount of protein material consumed. However, since there is less sample, less heat is produced. While in the literature there are several heat transfer models that describe how a DSC instrument literature there are several heat transfer models that describe how a DSC instrument functions, there are surprisingly few heat transfer models that detail how ambient temperature disturbances impact the thermal measurement. To better describe this behavior, a simplified state-space thermal model was created to predict the disturbance rejection of a custom DSC instrument. This model was verified experimentally using linear stochastic system identification techniques. To reduce sample throughput, the prototype calorimeter cell was made from disposable materials. Because the majority of protein systems are thermodynamically irreversible, at elevated temperatures the protein solution often aggregates and needs to be cleaned before a subsequent experiment can be run. This cleaning process constitutes a significant portion of the overall time to run an experiment. This thesis documents a fully functional DSC instrument that, while not completely disposable, has been designed, built, and tested with disposable microfluidic materials. Future work would then solve the technical hurdles of repeatably loading disposable microfluidic cells into the DSC instrument.<br>by Scott Jacob McEuen.<br>Ph.D.

Abstract:
Design is seen as the magic word and being a design engineer is considered to be the key to success in the job market by many of the mechanical engineering students. However, it is always assumed that the mechanical systems not the thermal engineers are indeed design engineers by education and practice. This notion probably stems from the fact that most of the thermal fluid courses in mechanical engineering curriculum seem to have been defined and developed to prepare undergraduate students for going to graduate school rather than the job market. The undergraduate courses usually emphasize on the theories with less attention to the design and application aspects. Perhaps, the responsibility of thermal engineering educators is to correct this notion by emphasizing more on the application and design in the existing courses or alternatively to develop and offer new courses on more applied topics. In this paper, we will report an integrated approach in teaching topics in fins and fin assemblies, which includes class lectures, laboratory experiments, ANSYS simulations and design competition. In this manuscript, we will report on the details of this approach including the procedures, methods, our observations, and the students’ feedbacks.

Abstract:
In this work, some analyses of a generalized expression of the thermo-acoustic (TA) emission are carried out. The results of the study clearly show that a wideband flat amplitude-frequency response mostly in ultrasonic region exists for TA emission from not only porous silicon (PS) but any solid, and the fully thermal-mechanical coupling and effective thermal-wave penetration depth should be taken into account for the calculation of its signal magnitude and frequency range. Problems occurring in Nature paper on the thermally induced ultrasonic emission from PS are also pointed out and discussed. Besides, the performance evaluation techniques for both TA material and its backing are presented.

Abstract:
Abstract Experiences related to a new sophomore level course, “Introduction to Thermal Fluid Engineering,” are described. Several hundred students have taken the course and are currently enrolled in the follow-on courses in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. The introductory course is structured as a two-hour per week lecture with a laboratory that meets three times during the semester. Although thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer subjects are introduced sequentially during the course, the overlap and inter-relationships between topics are emphasized. It has been beneficial both for students and the faculty teaching the course to see the bigger picture of the three courses as a whole rather than as separate topics. The open laboratories are manned by a graduate student or senior who guides the students through hands-on experiments. Each of the three simple experiments is designed to illustrate important principles and reinforce the computational skills of the students. A web site has been established to help guide the students in preparing the written portion of the laboratory report. Team teaching of some sections has been tried and compared to the standard one teacher per section approach. Feedback from the students indicated a surprising acceptance of having several teachers for a course when they were well coordinated. One advantage mentioned by the students was to introduce them to more of the mechanical engineering faculty early in their studies. Because this is the first course requiring engineering analysis taught by the mechanical engineering faculty, it provides the opportunity to direct them in their problem solving and organizational skills that will be useful throughout the rest of their courses. Student evaluations are included as part of the results presented.

Abstract:
Effective energy management in the buildings is one of the key factors impacting the overall energy consumption, and thus has important consequences on climate and the environment. Detecting human thermal discomfort can be potentially used to reduce energy consumption in both buildings and vehicles, while maintaining the thermal comfort sensation of the occupants. This paper proposes a non-contact approach that relies on the thermal features obtained from thermal imaging (owing to its advantage as a noninvasive and noncontact method), in order to automatically detect the thermal discomfort level without any explicit input from the user. This research makes three contributions. First, a novel dataset of thermal recordings of 50 subjects is collected. Second, we extract and analyze features from two different thermal cameras in order to accurately detect the thermal discomfort levels of subjects. Third, we explore the capabilities of the cameras features in detecting seven levels of comfort/discomfort levels within the three categories of comfortable, cold, and hot. Our approach is expected to enable innovative adaptive control scenarios for enclosed environments as well as an important reduction in energy consumption in both buildings and vehicles.

Abstract:
As the absolute level of thermal sensation is vague for human beings, one cannot correctly select the absolute level of the multi-point thermal sensation scale with any kinds of precise classification. To achieve a breakthrough in such a situation, we propose a new voting method based on the relative change of thermal sensation, and investigate the thermal sensation under the unsteady thermal environments. It is shown that the new voting method is essential for the evaluation of thermal sensation under the unsteady environments and brings some aspects of the thermal sensation under the unsteady environments. Furthermore, we discuss the standardization of the thermal sensation in detail, and propose a new parameter for the standardization.

Abstract:
Abstract We present a new approach to teaching the core thermal/fluids curriculum for undergraduate programs in engineering. Traditional thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer classes are being replaced with two integrated courses and a laboratory in which the three disciplines are taught simultaneously to show interconnections and transferability of concepts and ideas, with an emphasis on the way they occur in engineering practice. This approach seeks to improve both the context and manner in which the subject matter is covered. Our goals are to enhance the physical intuition of our students, to stimulate their ability to think critically and synthesize information, and to make clearer the relevance of the fundamentals to advanced analytical and computational tools.

Abstract:
Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are used in gas turbine engines to achieve a higher working temperature and thus lead to a better efficiency. Yttria-Stabilized-Zirconia (YSZ), a material with low thermal conductivity, is commonly used as the TBC top coat to provide the thermal barrier effect. In this paper, an analytical model is proposed to estimate the effective thermal conductivity of the TBCs based on the microstructures. This model includes the micro structure details, such as grain size, pore size, volume fraction of pores, and the interfacial resistance. To validate the model, two sets of TBC samples were fabricated and tested for thermal conductivity and associated microstructures. The first set of samples were disk shaped YSZ-Al2O3 samples fabricated using a pressing machine. The YSZ-Al2O3 powder mixture was 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 wt% Al2O3/YSZ powder ratio. The second set of samples were fabricated by Atmospheric Plasma Spray process for two different microstructure configurations, standard (STD) and vertically cracked (VC), at two different thicknesses, 400 and 700 urn respectively. A laser flash system was used to measure the thermal conductivity of the coatings. Experiments were performed over the temperature range from 100°C to 800°C. The porosity of the YSZ samples was measured using a mercury porosimetry analyzer, POREMASTER 33 system. A Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to study the microstructure of the samples. It is observed that the microstructure and the porosity are directly linked with the thermal conductivity values. The relationship of the properties to the real microstructure determines the validity of the proposed model.
