High-emissivity coatings increase surface emissivity to values between 0.85 and 0.95, remaining stable even at temperatures ...
A method to save heating and cooling energy consumption using smart polymer composites has been proposed. The National Research Foundation of Korea announced on the 17th that Professor Kim Geon-woo's ...
Control of thermal radiation at high temperatures is vital for waste heat recovery and for high-efficiency thermophotovoltaic (TPV) conversion. Previously, structural resonances utilizing gratings, ...
A team of researchers, which includes the University of Southampton, have developed new technology which could prompt a significant change for a spacecraft or satellite. Metamaterial optical solar ...

Glazed facades can heat up outdoor environments
While much is known about the impact of glazed facades on indoor thermal temperatures and energy efficiency, University of ...
As the global energy crisis intensifies and climate change accelerates, finding sustainable solutions for energy management is increasingly urgent. One promising approach is passive radiative cooling, ...
• Leaf optical properties impact leaf energy balance and thus leaf temperature. The effect of leaf development on mid-infrared (MIR) reflectance, and hence thermal emissivity, has not been ...
What does this mean to a firefighter using a TI outdoors? During initial size-up while conducting a 360° survey around a structure, we need to remember how a TI interprets images—e.g., white is hot, ...
FLIR Systems has published a new technical note that investigates and describes how to use low-cost materials to increase target emissivity to enable accurate measurement using a thermal imaging ...
Scientists have studied radiative sky cooling (RSC) at the research level as a potential passive cooling technique for buildings and solar modules. RSC occurs when the surface of an object absorbs ...
Today's thermal imagers are rugged, easy to use, and much more affordable than they were even just a few years ago. They have become a realistic solution for everyday electrical maintenance. To use, a ...
