ABSTRACT

This chapter documents some of the major advances made during the past few years under the umbrella of the constructal law of design evolution. The constructal law is applied here to several classes of engineering problems: from the design of porous structures to the optimization of the transport of ionic species in the context of electrokinetics; from the cooling of electronics to underground heat exchangers, thermal energy storage, and distributed energy systems on the landscape.
