Introduction to Flexible Thermal

What is/are Flexible Thermal?

Flexible Thermal - The textile is composed of piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride nanofibrous membrane doped with zinc oxide nanoparticles (PVDF/ZnO NFM) and flexible thermal-resistance carbon nanofibers (CNFs). ^[1] The homogeneous and flexible thermally-crosslinked SPEEK/SPAES membranes displayed excellent mechanical toughness (27–46 Mpa), suitable water uptake ( 120 mS cm−1) at 80 °C. ^[2] Herein, a kind of flexible thermal-resistant poly(arylene ether nitrile) (TR-PEN) dielectric film with controllable high-temperature resistance is fabricated through post self-crosslinking of PEN at different temperatures for different times. ^[3] The stress-sensitive w-CNT/PDMS composite enable it to be used in a flexible thermal-sensitive strain sensor. ^[4]

flexible thermal insulation

Lightweight and flexible thermal insulation materials have gradually become a research focus. ^[1] The paper presents the results of measuring thermal conductivity and heat capacity of a flexible thermal insulation. ^[2] 042 W/m·K were a promising choice for flexible thermal insulation. ^[3] A new flexible thermal insulation sheet, a composite of silica aerogel with polypropylene (PP) foam, has been developed. ^[4] Our research demonstrates the successful preparation of polystyrene (PS) flexible thermal insulation materials by innovatively spinning PS into fibres. ^[5]

flexible thermal protection

Experimental preparation of lightweight and highly flexible aerogels has been a longstanding challenge, which limits their practical application in flexible thermal protection. ^[1] Woven-fiber ceramic materials have shown remarkable results in the design of insulative lay-up structures for flexible thermal protection systems. ^[2] Ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber is used as flexible thermal protection for rocket engines, as well as in blends with polychloroprene, which can be applied in the aeronautical sector, and with great potential in the defense sector. ^[3] Flexible thermal protection materials made from two-dimensional woven ceramics fibers are of significant interest for hypersonic inflatable aerodynamic decelerators being developed by NASA for future missions on Mars and other planets. ^[4] The results in this paper can be used to develop new cost effective and easy to manufacture applications like printed temperature sensors, conductive traces, flexible thermal protection circuits, or new cases for electronic modules that could also act as a temperature fuse besides the default role of preventing ESD damaging. ^[5]

flexible thermal sensor

Finally, this nano-composite has a promising functional application as a flexible thermal sensor and wearable thermoelectric generators thanks to its unique properties and easy reproducibility. ^[1] These PANI/ILs inks can be easily screen printed onto various flexible substrates such as A4 paper, fabrics, and plastics to prepare flexible thermal sensors. ^[2] This paper introduces a flexible thermal sensor that can be used on robotic fingers to achieve rapid measurement of thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity for different materials. ^[3] A high sensitive micro flexible thermal sensor was developed to investigate the boundary layer separation and transition over NACA 0012 airfoil. ^[4]

flexible thermal load

First, the models of household appliances and air conditioning load are built as the shiftable and non-schedulable loads and a flexible thermal load, respectively. ^[1] This paper proposes a stochastic dynamic programming-based online algorithm to address the energy management of integrated energy buildings with electric vehicles and flexible thermal loads under multivariate uncertainties. ^[2] Then, under the scenario of flexible thermal load assisted peak-adjustment, the target charge optimization scheduling model with maximum wind power consumption was established by comprehensively considering the penalty costs of wind abandon and peak-valley difference, and an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm was used to solve the problem. ^[3]

flexible thermal comfort

Taking into account the inherent uncertainty of renewable generations, the probabilistic spinning reserve is written in the form of a chance constraint; in addition, a district heating network model is built considering the characteristics of time delay and thermal attenuation by fully exploiting its potential, and the flexible thermal comfort requirements of users in IDR are considered by introducing a predicted mean vote (PMV) index. ^[1] It was also found that the adaptive model of thermal comfort (AMTC) as developed by the ASHRAE 55-2013 standard is a suitable and locally appropriate first approach to thermal comfort for the social housing sector because it can incorporate people’s thermal acceptancy with a more flexible thermal comfort temperature band than the one traditionally used when designing with the static model of thermal comfort. ^[2]

flexible thermal flow

This paper reports a scalable and efficient strategy of manufacturing a polyacrylonitrile-carbon nanotube-polyacrylonitrile (PAN-CNT-PAN) robust flexible platform for multifunctional electronic devices including flexible heaters, temperature sensors, and flexible thermal flow sensors. ^[1] Such rational control of heat convection and conduction allows to not only dynamically monitor air flow, but also sight the large-scale air flow distribution on curved surfaces using a flexible thermal flow sensor array. ^[2]

flexible thermal cooling

In addition, the s-BAs demonstrates high flexibility and preserves the high conductivity over at least 500 bending cycles, opening up new application opportunities for flexible thermal cooling. ^[1] In addition, a flexible, non-linear model for the electric demand minimization of chiller plants in districts with a rigid or flexible thermal cooling demand is proposed in this study. ^[2]

flexible thermal management

There is a growing need to develop flexible thermal management solutions to cool these foldable electronic devices. ^[1] The intrinsically flexible PCM film developed in this work is holding great potential for next-generation flexible thermal management electronics. ^[2]
