We demonstrate using molecular dynamics simulations of the Lennard-Jones fluid that the evaporation process of nanodroplets at the nanoscale is limited by the heat transfer. The temperature is continuous at the liquid-vapor interface if the liquid/vapor density ratio is small (of the order of 10) and discontinuous otherwise. The temperature in the vapor has a scaling form T(r,t)=T[r/R(t)], where R(t) is the radius of an evaporating droplet at time t and r is the distance from its center. Mechanical equilibrium establishes very quickly, and the pressure difference obeys the Laplace law during evaporation.

Quantum dot (QD)-converted micrometer-scale light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) are regarded as an effective solution for achieving high-performance full-color micro-LED displays because of their narrow-band emission, simplified mass transfer, facile drive circuits, and low cost. However, these micro-LEDs suffer from significant blue light leakage and unsatisfactory electroluminescence properties due to the poor light conversion efficiency and stability of the QDs. Herein, the construction of green and red QD luminescence microspheres with the simultaneously high conversion efficiency of blue light and strong photoluminescence stability are proposed.

Oceanic subsurface observations are sparse and lead to large uncertainties in any model-based estimate. We investigate the applicability of transfer learning based neural networks to reconstruct North Atlantic temperatures in times with sparse observations. Our network is trained on a time period with abundant observations to learn realistic physical behavior.

This study examines heat transfer and nanofluid-enhanced blood flow behaviour in stenotic arteries under inflammatory conditions, addressing critical challenges in cardiovascular health. The blood, treated as a Newtonian fluid, is augmented with gold nanoparticles to improve thermal conductivity and support drug delivery applications. A hybrid methodology combining finite element method (FEM) for numerical modelling and artificial neural networks (ANN) for stability prediction provides a robust analytical framework.

In the emerging energy-sharing market, prosumers enhance resource allocation and promote low-carbon transitions through energy trade. Implicit carbon transfers in energy sharing necessitate scientific carbon responsibility allocation to guide prosumers' decisions in integrated electricity, heat, and carbon markets. To coordinate growing multi-prosumers, and stimulate multi-energy sharing and equitable carbon responsibility allocation, an innovative framework for joint multi-energy and carbon responsibility sharing is designed to enhance local energy transaction, carbon emission management, and mutual benefits under the guiding principles of individual rationality, low-carbon orientation, transparency, and scalability.

Efficient thermal management is crucial for optimizing the performance and longevity of automotive engines, particularly as environmental regulations become more stringent and consumer demand for fuel efficiency increases. This paper investigates the energy and exergy performance of a wavy fin-and-tube radiator employing novel ternary nanofluids (TNFs) for enhanced automotive cooling. A theoretical comparative analysis was performed on four distinct ethylene glycol-water solution-based TNF configurations.
