Thermal rectification in asymmetric graphene ribbons
Nuo Yang,Gang Zhang,Baowen Li +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the heat flux in graphene nanoribbons has been studied by using molecular dynamics simulations, and it is found that the heat flow runs preferentially along the direction of decreasing width, which demonstrates significant thermal rectification effect in the asymmetric graphene ribbons.

Swellam W. Sharshir,Swellam W. Sharshir,Guilong Peng,Lirong Wu,Nuo Yang,Fadl A. Essa,Ammar H. Elsheikh,Showgi I.T. Mohamed,Abd Elnaby Kabeel +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the use of graphite and copper oxide micro-flakes with different concentrations, different basin water depths, and different film cooling flow rates is experimentally investigated in an attempt to improve the performance of solar still.

Carbon Nanocone: A Promising Thermal Rectifier
Nuo Yang,Gang Zhang,Baowen Li +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate very obvious thermal rectification in large temperature range from 200 to 400 K in nanocone and observe that the rectification does not depend on the length of the length very sensitively, which is in stark contrast with the nanotube thermal rectifier, which decreases dramatically as the length increases.
