...Myeongjin Kim; Joo Hyun Moon Purpose This study aims to introduce a deep neural network (DNN) to estimate the effective thermal conductivity of the flat heat pipe with spreading thermal resistance. Design/methodology/approach A total of 2,160 computational fluid dynamics simulation cases over...

..., such as effective thermal conductivity calculation, used since decades, for characterizing the thermal performances of an electronic component were tested and appeared to be tricky. A new approach based on an effective thermal conductivity matrix is investigated to reduce computation time. The obtained numerical...

..., is used to assess the heating fabric with a temperature control model. The study determines suitable parameters for the fabric by evaluating the temperature uniformity on the fabric surface. Effective thermal conductivities of the fabric are obtained by comparing the experimental and numerical results...

... a “nanofluid‐oriented” model for the calculation of the effective thermal conductivity (Xu‐Yu‐Zou‐Xu's model) and the effective dynamic viscosity (Jang‐Lee‐Hwang‐Choi's model). Another motivation is the numerical solution of the equations of the flow with a meshless method. Design/methodology/approach...
