Abstract:Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been thoroughly documented to demonstrate superior heat transfer properties. It has also been determined that these properties decrease substantially as overall dimensions increase from the nanoscale to the microscale. Using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations and finite element analysis, the influence of both internal and external thermal boundary resistance effects on the thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity of single walled carbon nanotube bundles were inve… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
