2018年热超构材料研发热点回眸

Seven hot research topics in thermal metamaterials in 2018

热超构材料研发活动在2018年再次取得丰硕的研究成果。回顾了热超构材料2018年在热传导、热对流、热辐射3种传热方式方面的研究进展及应用,归纳为7个研究热点:结构表面高效调控热传导、非均匀热学结构理论进展及应用开发、热学零折射隐身斗篷、建立了变换热对流理论、反常对流传热现象、从太阳和太空中同步收集能量、热超构材料应用设计与集成开发。

This paper reviews the overall research and development of thermal metametraials in terms of thermal conduction,convection and radiation in 2018.We summarize in particular seven research topics,which are(1) efficient manipulation of thermal conduction by using structured surfaces,(2) theoretical establishment and application exploration of inhomogeneous thermal structure,(3) thermal cloak with thermal near-zero-index-materials,(4) establishment of transformation thermal convection theory,(5) abnormal phenomena of thermal convection,(6) thermal radiation:energy collection from the sun and the outer space,and(7) application design and integration development of thermal metamaterials.All these topics are related not only to fundamental research but also to application development.
