Which can move heat faster: a few heat pipes (say six 6mm pipes) or water running through a tube? Careful: I'm trying to zero in not on whether a heat pipe setup or a water cooling setup is better for ...

Researchers have found that graphene-based heat pipes can help solve the problems of cooling electronics and power systems used in avionics, data centres, and other power electronics. Researchers at ...

Years ago, I had a high school science teacher ask our class the following question: If a piece of wood and a steel rod sat outside on a 20-degree day, which one would be warmer? While the class ...

Last month I wrote about early steam heating and how experimentation led to discovery, which led to new products or piping techniques. This time I will be writing about the early days of gravity hot ...
