The new pump has no moving parts. “Instead, it relies on thermoacoustics, the interaction between sound waves and heat, to move thermal energy,” Interesting Engineering writes. The pump uses that ...

A series of quantum physics experiments and theoretical papers now suggest that heat can flow spontaneously from a cold ...

EPFL researchers have shown theoretically that, in highly ordered materials, heat can flow toward warmer regions without ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. From Texas clear to Georgia, from the Gulf Coast on up to the Canadian border, a mass of dangerous heat has started spreading like ...

Scientists have developed a new microscope that significantly improves the way heat flow in materials can be measured. This advancement could lead to better designs for electronic devices and energy ...

James Cook University (JCU) research argues Australians urgently need better education about heat to prepare for longer, hotter and more dangerous heat waves driven by climate change.

The Conversation reports on winter jackets, blending old physics and modern materials to efficiently trap heat, ensuring ...

For two centuries, engineers have trusted a simple rule to predict how heat flows through solids, from jet-engine blades to smartphone chips. Now a set of carefully designed experiments has revealed a ...

As extreme heat claims more lives during ruthless summers in the region, Southern Nevada is upping the ante in its tree planting efforts. But a new study suggests trees alone may not be enough to make ...

A large heat dome that will dominate the weather pattern across the eastern two-thirds of the nation into late June will produce more than record-smashing temperatures, as severe thunderstorms will ...
