A simple radiative thermal diode

Elyes Nefzaoui, Jérémie Drevillon, Younès Ezzahri +1

We present a thermal rectification device concept based on far-field radiative exchange between two selective emitters. Rectification is achieved due to the fact that one of the se…

Impact of a Liquid Drop on a Granular Medium: inertia, viscosity and surface tension effects on the drop deformation

Elyes Nefzaoui, Olivier Skurtys

An experimental study of liquid drop impacts on a granular medium is proposed. Four fluids were used to vary physical properties: pure distilled water, water with glycerol at 2 con…
