Excess heat from electronic or mechanical devices is a sign or cause of inefficient performance. In many cases, embedded sensors to monitor the flow of heat could help engineers alter device behavior ...

A split system heat pump's defrost sensor is used to detect ice buildup on the heat pump's outdoor coil. When ice builds up on the coil, it reduces the heat pump's ability to transfer heat, which can ...

Why heat flux (flow) is an important thermal parameter. How researchers have developed an innovative heat-flux sensor. Details on the performance of this sensor in flat and curved situations. We know ...

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (WISH) — Thirty heat sensors have been installed on Indiana University’s campus and around the city of Bloomington. IU Environmental Science student Nick Polak said the sensors take ...
