The present work covers the flow and heat transfer model for the Power-law nanofluid in the presence of a porous medium over a penetrable plate. The flow is caused by the impulsive movement of the plate embedded in Darcy's porous medium. The flow and heat transfer models are examined with the effect of linear thermal radiation in the flow regime. The Rosseland approximation is utilized for the optically thick nanofluid. The governing partial differential equations are solved using Lie symmetry analysis to find the reductions and invariants for the closed-form solutions. These invariants are then utilized to obtain the exact solutions for the shear-thinning, Newtonian, and shear-thickening nanofluids. In the end, all solutions are plotted for the Cu-water nanofluid to observe the effect of different emerging flow and heat transfer parameters.

In a previous study, we developed an integrated reaction system combining NH decomposition and CO methanation within a membrane reactor, significantly enhancing reactor performance through efficient H separation. Ru/Ba/γ-AlO and Ru/ZrO were employed as catalysts for each reaction. To ensure the accuracy and reliability of our results, they were validated through 1D models using FlexPDE Professional Version 7.

In nature, engineering technology and daily life, wetting phenomena are widespread and have essential roles and significance. Bionics is becoming increasingly important nowadays and exploring the mechanism that influences biomimetic surface microstructure on droplet wetting process and heat and mass transfer characteristics is becoming more meaningful. In this paper, based on photolithography technology, SU-8 photoresist was used as raw material to prepare biomimetic surfaces with microstructures in various arrangements.

The realization of low thermal conductivity at high temperatures (0.11 W m K 800 °C) in ambient air in a porous solid thermal insulation material, using stable packed nanoparticles of high-entropy spinel oxide with 8 cations (HESO-8 NPs) with a relatively high packing density of ≈50%, is reported. The high-density HESO-8 NP pellets possess around 1000-fold lower thermal diffusivity than that of air, resulting in much slower heat propagation when subjected to a transient heat flux.

Ultrafast thermal switches are pivotal for managing heat generated in advanced solid-state applications, including high-speed chiplets, thermo-optical modulators, and on-chip lasers. However, conventional phonon-based switches cannot meet the demand for picosecond-level response times, and existing near-field radiative thermal switches face challenges in efficiently modulating heat transfer across vacuum gaps. To overcome these limitations, we propose an ultrafast thermal switch design based on pump-driven transient polaritons in asymmetric terminals.

This study explores the bubble nucleation process and heat transfer characteristics on nanostructured solid surfaces with mixed-wettable pillars using molecular dynamics simulations. Five different surfaces were designed by varying the wettability of the central pillars while keeping the lateral pillars hydrophilic. The nucleation behavior of argon bubbles was observed to differ significantly across these surfaces due to the combined effects of nanostructuring and mixed wettability.
