Abstract


The enhancement of near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT) has now become one of the research hotspots in the fields of thermal management and imaging due to its ability to improve the performance of near-field thermoelectric devices and near-field imaging systems.  In this paper, we design three structures (multilayer structure, nanoporous structure, and nanorod structure) based on high-entropy alloys to realize the enhancement of NFRHT. By combining stochastic electrodynamics and Maxwell-Garnett's description of the effective medium, we calculate the radiative heat transfer under different parameters and find that the nanoporous structure has the largest enhancement effect on NFRHT. The near-field heat transfer factor (q) of this structure (q = 1.40×109 W/ (m2•K)) is three times higher than that of the plane structure (q = 4.6×108 W/ (m2•K)), and about two orders of magnitude higher than that of the SiO2 plate. This result provides a fresh idea for the enhancement of NFRHT and will promote the application of high-entropy alloy materials in near-field heat radiation.
