A technology that boosts condensation heat transfer performance by up to 5.5 times that of conventional copper surfaces has ...

Scientists have developed an ultrathin coating that can make copper surfaces transfer heat during condensation up to 5.5 ...

Efficient condensation depends on clearing water away from the surface quickly. On conventional metal surfaces, small ...

An ultrathin polymer coating speeds droplet formation and removal, offering more efficient cooling, desalination and ...

Scientists have developed an ultrathin coating that could dramatically improve how efficiently heat is transferred during condensation. By turning tiny polymer structures once considered “defects” ...

Efficient heat transfer is a top priority for industrial equipment performance. If heat transfer is uneven or unpredictable, the results range from increased maintenance demands to reduced machine ...

Freiburg-based start-up Qurie GmbH, a spin-off from the Fraunhofer Institute for Physical Measurement Techniques IPM, is developing a solid-state heat pump that operates without conventional ...
