A split system heat pump's defrost sensor is used to detect ice buildup on the heat pump's outdoor coil. When ice builds up on the coil, it reduces the heat pump's ability to transfer heat, which can ...

Excess heat from electronic or mechanical devices is a sign or cause of inefficient performance. In many cases, embedded sensors to monitor the flow of heat could help engineers alter device behavior ...

Heat stress is a persistent problem on construction sites during the summer months. Workers tend to push themselves to keep working even as they begin to show signs of heat exhaustion, and safety can ...
