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 ...

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 ...

Touted as one of the industry's only heat and radiant flux sensors designed for energy measurement across a surface, these sensors are said to be highly sensitive and easily miniaturizable with very ...

Researchers from the Department of Physics at the University of Tokyo have designed a heat flux sensor that can measure heat flux — the amount of heat that passes through a material — using a ...

Thin-film resistance temperature detectors are thin film-like devices that are generally made of platinum and used for temperature measurement. This is possible because an increase in temperature is ...
