Thermal regulation and its impacts on human comfort and energy efficiency by Xiang, Zhenhui

“…However, this model has some limitations such as people who undergone the experiments are from a narrow range of age group; in addition, the experiment environment was under moderate thermal climate zones only. In order to find a more energy efficient HVAC system design, one must find a suitable thermal comfort model which best suits the climate and the region, as well as the building types. …”

Study of heat transfer through micro-structured surfaces by Chin, Wei Hao

“…The heat transfer performance of a chip can be determined directly from the calculation of the critical heat flux of the liquid medium surrounding the chip, just as the boiling curve arrives at the film boiling zone. A silicon chip of dimensions 15x18mm is used as a starting control to be compared later on. …”
