The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
The formation of particulate matter (PM/soot), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and other byproducts of the combustion process in diesel engines is controlled by spatiotemporally varying quantities within the engine cylinders which traditional sensors cannot resolve. This study explores the use of an advanced sensing technique using an optical probe which can be used to produce highly spatiotemporally resolved in cylinder images of the flame formation during the combustion stroke. Using a fiber optic cable and custom lensing system adapted to fit a pre-existing pressure transducer port, light from within the cylinder can be transmitted through the imaging probe to a high …

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Graphene is a 2D carbon material that has extraordinary physical properties relevant to many industrial applications such as electronics, oxidation barrier and biosensors. Roll-to-roll plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has been developed to manufacture graphene at large scale. In a plasma CVD chamber, graphene is grown on a copper foil as it passes through a high-temperature plasma region. The temperatures of the gas and the copper foil play important roles in the growth of graphene. Consequently, there is a need to understand the temperature and gas velocity distributions in the system. The heat generated in the plasma creates a thermal …

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Passive thermal management with phase change materials (PCMs) has become the one of the most promising methods to cool cell phone processors due to the relatively simple implementation and profound impact on processor temperatures. Enhancing the thermal properties of conventional PCMs, mainly thermal conductivity and latent heat storage, allows for an overall improved thermal management system. This study aims to improve the thermal conductivity of paraffin wax (a typical commercial PCM) by the introduction of an expanded graphite (EG) filler to form a paraffin wax composite, and then infiltration of the EG/paraffin composite into an aluminum foam matrix. The thermal …

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Phosphor thermometry is a non-intrusive thermometry technique that allows for spatially and temporally resolved surface temperature measurements. The thermographic method has been employed in a number of applications that include combustion, sprays, and gas flows. In the current work, we investigate the implementation of thermographic phosphors in liquid flows, which is of interest in a wide range of applications in heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and thermal systems. Zinc oxide doped with Zinc (ZnO:Zn) was the phosphor employed for experimentation due to its high emission intensity and insolubility. In order to explore this application, the phosphor powder was uniformly dispersed in …

Relative Contributions Of Inelastic Phonon Scattering And Elastic Phonon Scattering To Thermal Boundary Conductance Across Solid Interfaces, Mengxi Zhao, Zexi Lu, Xiulin Ruan
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
The knowledge of inelastic phonon scattering is crucial for the understanding of thermal boundary conductance across solid interfaces. Several traditional theoretical models such as the acoustic mismatch model (AMM) and the diffuse mismatch model (DMM) assume that the elastic phonon scattering drives the thermal transport across the interface. But there are experiments indicating that the inelastic phonon scattering plays an important part in the interfacial thermal energy conduction as well. We use nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) to predict the inelastic phonon conductance across Cu/Si interface. Temperature distribution across Cu/Si interface has been obtained from the simulation results, and a temperature …

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Microprocessor advancements have been stunted in recent years by inadequate means of heat dissipation as power continues to grow and size continues to shrink. One way to increase thermal conductivity while maintaining electrical insulation is to add metal nanoparticles to a polymer matrix. This cheap material has become a popular thermal interface for this reason. However, optimization of the interface is dependent upon a number of factors including particle size, shape, orientation, and aggregation. Various theoretical models and numerical approximations have been developed to find the effective thermal conductivity of such nanocomposites, but none has been able to fully incorporate …
