    • openAccess   Bridging Silicon Nanoparticles and Thermoelectrics: Phenylacetylene Functionalization 

      Ashby, Shane P.; Thomas, Jason A.; García-Cañadas, Jorge; Min, Gao; Corps, Jack; Powel, Anthony W.; Xu, Hualong; Shen, Wei; Chao, Yimin Royal Society of Chemistry (2014-06-26)
      Silicon is a promising alternative to current thermoelectric materials (Bi2Te3). Silicon nanoparticle based materials show especially low thermal conductivities due to their high number of interfaces, which increases the ...

    • openAccess   Characterization of halloysite-water nanofluid for heat transfer applications 

      Alberola-Borràs, Jaume-Adrià; Mondragon, Rosa; Juliá Bolívar, José Enrique; Hernandez, Leonor; Cabedo, Luis Elsevier (2014-07-04)
      Nanofluids based on water with halloysite (Hal) nanotubes were prepared and characterized in order to evaluate its suitability to be used as a heat transfer fluid. A characterization of the Hal powder nanoparticles was ...

    • openAccess   Room temperature screening of thermal conductivity by means of thermal transient measurements 

      García-Cañadas, Jorge; Cheng, Shudan; Márquez García, Lourdes; Prest, Martin J.; Akbari-Rahimadi, Ahmad; Min, Gao IOP Publishing (2016-10)
      A proof of concept of the possibility to estimate thermal conductivity of bulk disc samples at room temperature by means of thermal decays is demonstrated. An experimental set-up was designed and fabricated, which is able ...
