Researchers from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Hong Kong Polytechnic University have designed and investigated a novel coated semi-transparent photovoltaic (CSTPV) glazing for ...

The movement of radiant heat -- felt when a hot surface warms our bodies and homes -- between buildings and their surroundings at ground level makes buildings with less skyward-facing surfaces harder ...

The Raspberry Pi 5, the, is a powerful device that can handle a variety of tasks. However, like any computer, it generates heat during operation, which can affect its performance and longevity if not ...

Two studies highlight new glass- and ceramic-based passive radiative cooling materials. Unlike passive radiative cooling approaches that rely on polymers, these hard materials are more durable and ...

Americans are too reliant on air conditioning, an energy-hungry technology that worsens climate change. Artificial cooling already accounts for 10% of global heat-trapping greenhouse gas emissions, ...

With the mercury rising steadily, architects share projects that are cool in more ways than one ...

The use of passive devices in low-voltage applications is becoming increasingly common. For example, laptops and cell phones require batteries with ultra low internal (ionic) resistance. So ...

The world just experienced its hottest June on record, and 2024 is projected to be even hotter. Cooling accounts for 10% of global electricity demand, which can rise by more than 50% in summer. If ...

If you are searching for a way to keep your Raspberry Pi mini PC components cool at an affordable price you might be interested in a new $8 Pi 5 passive cooling case aptly named the Passive Cooling ...
