The continuous casting process is a fundamental operation in modern steel production, whereby molten metal is solidified into semi-finished billets, blooms or slabs. Optimisation of the associated ...

In some cases, heat conduction can even be dramatically limited by the fact that different isotopes of an element are built into the material -- i.e. similar atoms with different numbers of neutrons.

Manufacturers frequently employ heat transfer systems to sustain the high temperatures necessary for various forms of indirect heat transfer processes. Historically, facilities opted for steam-based ...

When we think about heat travelling through a material, we typically picture diffusive transport, a process that transfers heat from high-temperature ...
