Original Source: Body Heat Content and Dissipation in Obese and Normal Weight Adults
This study will investigate how different parts of the body lose body heat and will measure the heat released by specific areas such as the limbs and abdomen. Animal studies suggest that dissipation of body heat may affect energy expenditure, and therefore, body weight. This study will explore the relationship between obesity and heat in humans. Healthy people 18 years of age and older who are of normal weight or who are obese and who are not taking medications for obesity-rel...

Unidirectional spin-wave heat conveyer
The dissipation of heat towards cooler regions of a thermodynamic system is a ubiquitous phenomenon. It is now shown that collective excitations known as spin waves can be used to control the flow of...
DARPA technology to cool chips from within
Continued miniaturization and increased component density in today’s electronics have pushed heat generation and power dissipation to unprecedented levels. Current technology is keeping pace, but...
Heat wave especially dangerous for kids
Extreme heat continues to plague the nation with many areas seeing record temperatures. Though everyone needs to take precautions when it comes to dangerous heat, it’s especially important to watch...
Children at increased risk for heat-related illness
Extreme heat continues to plague the nation with many areas seeing record temperatures. Though everyone needs to take precautions when it comes to dangerous heat, it's especially important to watch yo...
Small heat-shock proteins protect from heat-stroke-associated neurodegeneration
Heat stroke triggers necrotic cell death and neurodegeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans, but hormetic preconditioning at a mildly elevated temperature strongly protects C. elegans from necrosis induc...
Preventing heat buildup within 3D integrated circuits
In the effort to pile more power atop silicon chips, engineers have developed the equivalent of miniature skyscrapers in 3D integrated circuits and encountered a new challenge: how to manage the heat...
Heat Wave May Make Womb a Dangerous Place (CME/CE)
(MedPage Today) -- Heat waves and other ambient heat exposure indicators during an embryo's critical period were positively associated with congenital cataracts, results of a population-based case con...
THURSDAY, Oct. 25 (HealthDay News) -- Young, obese males have reduced levels of testosterone, which greatly increases their risk of being impotent and infertile as adults, according to a new study. R...

Heat Transfer across the Interface between Nanoscale Solids and Gas.
When solid materials and devices scale down in size, heat transfer from the active region to the gas environment becomes increasingly significant. We show that the heat transfer coefficient across the...
Using an approach combining scanning thermal microscopy (SThM) and spatially revolved Raman spectroscopy, we have investigated quantitatively the heat dissipation characteristics in substrate-supporte...
A complete carbon-nanotube-based on-chip cooling solution with very high heat dissipation capacity.
Heat dissipation is one of the factors limiting the continuous miniaturization of electronics. In the study presented in this paper, we designed an ultra-thin heat sink using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) a...
This study investigated the differences in heat dissipation response to intense heat stress during exercise in hot and humid environments between tropical and temperate indigenes with matched physical...
