Scientists have discovered that applying an electric field to certain ceramics can dramatically redirect how heat moves through them.

Discover how to build a simple DIY Stirling engine powered by heat from candles using an empty spray can and pen components. This step-by-step guide demonstrates how to construct the engine, build a ...

Engineers have built a modern Stirling engine that quietly turns the cold of outer space into steady mechanical power, using the night sky as a heat sink instead of a fuel tank. By radiating heat away ...

An innovative fuel cell development that has been a decade in the making is now under construction and will provide heat to a nearby university and generate enough electricity annually that could ...

New research from the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in collaboration with The Ohio State University and Amphenol Corporation, challenges conventional understanding about ...
