Immersion in icy water causes body temperature and metabolism to fall rapidly (the thermal conductivity of water is 32 times greater than that of air).
Bombarding this phosphor with photons of energy higher than that of infrared photons but not sufficient for excitation can lead to photoquenching: the traps are emptied far more rapidly, and thermal deactivation of the centres is enhanced.
Since early-age properties of concrete change rapidly, the thermal properties of the concrete and its constituents shall be updated at each given time.
The rapidly increased thermal load as a result of the continuous down-scaling of electronic devices and increase in power densities requires faster and more effective heat dissipation.
While DNA degrades rapidly in thermal environments due to temperature-driven denaturization, hypersaline environments are adept at preserving DNA.
Hepatic resection is the mainstay of curative treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with perioperative and survival results improving in recent years. 1 Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a rapidly growing thermal ablative therapy for small HCC that is also potentially curative.
This research provides a method for rapidly correlating thermal-hydraulic characteristics in heat exchangers under the conditions of limited time and less spending of research and development.
The DNA segments could be amplified rapidly after 30 thermal cycles.
This study presents a convenient approach to rapidly assess the thermal performance of building envelopes containing phase change materials (PCMs) or other building materials.
In general, it was found that the mean heat release rate increases slowly and the overall combustion occurs rapidly with increasing thermal stratification regardless of the fuel composition.
