A failure to accurately predict fire growth on a solid object can be frequently traced to our
inability to fully resolve coupling between the gas-phase processes of flaming combustion …

Phase change material cooling is now a hotspot in the field of battery thermal management.
However, for promoting the practical application, the long-term durability of the phase …

In order to study the effect of high temperature on the sandstone, scanning electron
microscope (SEM) experiments and primary wave (P-wave) velocity tests have been carried …

The dynamic stability of the circular saw blade determines whether the sawing process can
smoothly proceed. The sawing heat significantly affects the dynamic stability of the circular …

Using extended surfaces or turbulators on the absorber plate (AP) is one of the great ways to
enhance the thermal performance of solar air heaters (SAHs). Although a large number of …

Engineered wood products (EWPs) are a group of materials having a very similar chemical
composition but having different and non-uniform thermo-physical properties throughout …

In this study, upward flame spread over a combustible solid in a vertical corner configuration
was simulated using two widely used computational tools–ThermaKin2Ds and the Fire …

Thermal characteristics represented by thermal parameters are very important for wood and
wood-based products. They are influenced by internal and external factors such as …

The distribution of mass density through the thickness of Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF)
panels is known to be non-uniform. A few studies have previously investigated the influence …

Ensuring reliability of data on thermal properties of wood-based panels is important for
manufacturing processes, especially when it is recommended to shorten the cooling phase …
