Near-field radiative heat transfer between arbitrarily-shaped objects and a surface
Sheila Edalatpour, Mathieu Francoeur
A fluctuational electrodynamics-based formalism for calculating near-field radiative heat transfer between objects of arbitrary size and shape and an infinite surface is presented.…
Near-field thermal electromagnetic transport: An overview
Sheila Edalatpour, John DeSutter, Mathieu Francoeur
A general near-field thermal electromagnetic transport formalism that is independent of the size, shape and number of heat sources is derived. The formalism is based on fluctuation…
Determination of thermal emission spectra maximizing thermophotovoltaic performance using a genetic algorithm
John DeSutter, Michael P. Bernardi, Mathieu Francoeur
Optimal radiator thermal emission spectra maximizing thermophotovoltaic (TPV) conversion efficiency and output power density are determined when temperature effects in the cell are…
Convergence analysis of the thermal discrete dipole approximation
Sheila Edalatpour, Martin Cuma, Tyler Trueax +2
The thermal discrete dipole approximation (T-DDA) is a numerical approach for modeling near-field radiative heat transfer in complex three-dimensional geometries. In this work, the…
The Thermal Discrete Dipole Approximation (T-DDA) for near-field radiative heat transfer simulations in three-dimensional arbitrary geometries
Sheila Edalatpour, Mathieu Francoeur
A novel numerical method called the Thermal Discrete Dipole Approximation (T-DDA) is proposed for modeling near-field radiative heat transfer in three-dimensional arbitrary geometr…
