Physicists developed small devices that turn heat into sound and then into electricity. The technology holds promise for changing waste heat into electricity, harnessing solar energy and cooling ...

If you spend most of your drive time in a newer vehicle you understand the letdown that comes with taking the wheel of a classic Mustang during the summertime. Even with air conditioning and OEM body ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A solid can serve as a medium for heat and sound wave interactions just like a fluid does for thermoacoustic engines and refrigerators – resulting in leak-free machines that can ...

Scientists at MIT have directly captured signs of “second sound” in a superfluid for the first time. This bizarre phenomenon occurs when heat moves like sound waves through an unusual state of matter.

This may not fit in "other hardware", but this seemed to be the closest fit, so here it is. We got an outdoor heat pump with a heat strip/air handler installed at our house last year. It's working ...
