An investigation of environmental temperature effects on energy exchange by thermal radiation
2013
The radiative heating or cooling of a body placed in an environment, whose temperature is considered constant is described by Stefan's law. In this paper, an analysis is made of how a time-dependent environmental temperature influences the heating/cooling process. We compare experimental results for a resistor first heated by the Joule effect inside a glass vacuum tube and then cooled under two different conditions: in a bath at a constant temperature and in air. We also discuss a model that describes how the time-dependent tube temperature influences the radiative resistor cooling by identifying the properties of the environment that make the resistor cooling rate linear.
A new approach to calibrate the thermal conditions in space charge measurements on HVDC mini-cables
2019
The PEA method is currently widespread used for space charge measurements in mini-cables in order to qualify the behavior of semicon-dielectric-semicon compound under electric and thermal stress. The main goal of this research is to quantitatively evaluate the relationship between the thermal boundary conditions applied to cables or mini-cables and the maximum local electric field due to the accumulated space charge. Hitherto, several research groups have obtained thermal gradients over the dielectric's radius heating the conductor by Joule effect due to an induced current. In this paper, a numerical approach is offered to calibrate the heat exchange boundary conditions to apply to a sample…
Effect of driving method on the degradation of organic light emitting diodes
2003
Abstract Lifetime testing results are reported for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) having the structure ITO (anode)/ N , N ′-diphenyl- N , N ′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1′-diphenyl-4,4′-diamine (TPD)/tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum (AlQ)/Al (cathode) and operated using dc and pulsed waveforms for comparison. In ambient atmosphere non-encapsulated devices show a lifetime of about 70 h in pulsed operation at an initial luminance of 500 cd/m 2 , almost four times longer than in dc operation. A fast initial decay of luminance is observed for dc operation. It is most probably due to a combination of Joule heating and mobile ionic impurities migration within the OLED structure under the conti…
Analytical RF Pulse Heating Analysis for High Gradient Accelerating Structures
2021
The main aim of this work is to present a simple method, based on analytical expressions, for obtaining the temperature increase due to the Joule effect inside the metallic walls of an RF accelerating component. This technique relies on solving the 1-D heat-transfer equation for a thick wall, considering that the heat sources inside the wall are the ohmic losses produced by the RF electromagnetic fields penetrating the metal with finite electrical conductivity. Furthermore, it is discussed how the theoretical expressions of this method can be applied to obtain an approximation to the temperature increase in realistic 3-D RF accelerating structures, taking as an example the cavity of an RF e…
