Transient heat flux shielding using thermal metamaterials    [PDF]

Supradeep Narayana, Salvatore Savo, Yuki Sato
We have developed a heat shield based on a metamaterial engineering approach to shield a region from transient diffusive heat flow. The shield is designed with a multilayered structure to prescribe the appropriate spatial profile for heat capacity, density, and thermal conductivity of the effective medium. The heat shield was experimentally compared to other isotropic materials.
