Researchers show that tweaking graphene to place cones between it and nanotubes grown from its surface would form 'nano-chimneys' that help heat escape. The discovery offers a strategy to channel heat ...

The thin-cavity fluidic heat exchanger from Third Millennium Engineering, Plano Tex., uses highvelocity gas flow to form a thin boundary layer that keeps circuits cool and isolated from possible ...

Many of us don’t have a formal background to build off when taking on new hacks, we have had to teach ourselves complex concepts and learn by doing (or more commonly, by failing). To help new hackers ...

Fuses and circuit breakers are ”safety valves” built into electrical circuits to protect the wiring against overheating because of an overload or a short circuit. If excessive current flowed through ...
