Passive and Active Control of Heat Transfer at Interfaces

Abstract

A key transfer of technology to a DoD laboratory was the development of an apparatus for time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) measurements of thermal transport properties at AFRL. During the course of the MURI project, TDTR has emerged as the state-of-the-art approach for measurements of the thermal conductivity of thin layers and studies of heat transfer at interfaces. Approximately 20 instruments are in use world-wide that are largely based on the approaches that were refined during the course of the MURI.
