Intracavity transducers are probes used in early pregnancy scans. To ensure the transducers do not exceed the maximum temperature threshold when in close contact with embryonic and fetal tissues, a thermal test object (TTO) was designed to measure the temperature of the transducers when in contact with soft tissue. A tissue mimicking material (TMM) was fabricated in place of real human tissue and coupled with the transducer. A Thermal Constants ...
As electronic devices approach nanometer scales, heat distribution becomes nonuniform and hot spots begin to form. Integrating graphene into nanoelectronics enhances thermal conductivity and heat flow which mitigates hot spots. In this experiment, large quantities of graphene were produced and thermal conductivity was measured by the transient plane source (TPS) method using an instrument. Results showed that the addition of graphene greatly improved the thermal conductivity of the thermal interface ...
