A Thermal, Mechanical, and Materials Framework for a Shape Memory Alloy Heat Engine for Thermal Management

Shape memory alloy (SMA) heat engines possess an inherent property of sensing a change in temperature, performing work, and rejecting heat through the shape memory effect resulting from a temperature-induced phase transformation. This work presents a framework for the design and implementation of an...
