...) fabricated on silicon, silicon carbide, and synthetic diamond. We show that AlGaN/GaN HEMTs built using GaN/diamond technology can offer better than half the thermal resistance of GaN/SiC HEMTs under worst-case cooling conditions. Furthermore, we show that, if left unmanaged, an inherent and non-negligible...

...M. A. Kedzierski This paper quantifies the influence of diamond nanoparticles on the pool boiling performance of R134a/polyolester mixtures on a roughened, horizontal, and flat surface. Nanofluids are liquids that contain dispersed nanosize particles. A lubricant based nanofluid (nanolubricant...

... phonons to thermal boundary conductance. This new anharmonic inelastic model shows improved agreement between the thermal boundary conductance predictions and experimental data at the Pb/diamond and Au/diamond interfaces due to its ability to account for the temperature dependent changing phonon...

...Sung Joong Kim; Tom McKrell; Jacopo Buongiorno; Lin-Wen Hu It is shown that addition of alumina, zinc-oxide, and diamond particles can enhance the critical heat flux (CHF) limit of water in flow boiling. The particles used here were in the nanometer range ( < 100 nm ) and at low concentration...

... in nanofluids with substantially small particles. Putting these facts together, it is postulated that the discrepancy between the measured values and the viscosity of the suspension with a controlled-shear-rate viscometer becomes minor, because the nanofluid uniformly dispersed with 10 nm diamond particles...

...H. B. Ma; C. Wilson; Q. Yu; K. Park; U. S. Choi; Murli Tirumala An experimental investigation of a nanofluid oscillating heat pipe (OHP) was conducted to determine the nanofluid effect on the heat transport capability in an OHP. The nanofluid consisted of HPLC grade water and 1.0 vol % diamond...

...K. R. Cheruparambil; B. Farouk, Mem. ASME; J. E. Yehoda; N. A. Macken Results from an experimental study on the rapid measurement of thermal conductivity of chemical vapor deposited (CVD) diamond films are presented. The classical thermal comparator method has been used successfully in the past...
