Figure 4

Finite element modeling (FEM) simulation results of the two- rectangular shaped solid-state thermal rectifier.

Simulation results of the temperatures distribution in (a) positive direction and (b) negative direction, respectively. (c) The total heat power (Experiments) and the thermal radiation power (Calculation) versus temperature difference |ΔT|. (d) Calculated and measured rectification coefficient versus the temperature difference |ΔT| under Wbot/Wtop = 4.5. Calculated and measured (e) heat power and (f) rectification coefficient versus Wbot/Wtop under |ΔT| = 40 K.
