It's estimated that more than half of U.S. energy—from vehicles and heavy equipment, for instance—is wasted as heat. Mostly, this waste heat simply escapes into the air. But that's beginning to change, ...

"At high altitude, it takes absolutely forever to boil water, so improving the efficiency of heat transfer to the pan makes a big difference," he says.

The research team at University of Missouri (MU) is making the software that they extended based on LAMMPS/OpenFOAM/CFDEM freely available to the thermal-fluids community to solve multiscale problems at micro-/nanoscale, by an atomistic-finite volume hybrid approach.

The catch is, the air must be cooler than the skin, which means if air temperature is 93 degrees F there can be no transfer of heat from the body. Worse ...
