When spun fast enough, a cold object can transfer heat to a nearby hot object.
J. R. Deop-Ruano and A. Manjavacas [1]
Heat flows from hot to cold, but a fast spin could break that rule. Juan Deop-Ruano and Alejandro Manjavacas from the Institute of Optics (IO-CSIC) in Spain predict that if two nanoscale disks are placed close to each other and rotated at high frequencies, heat could move from the cold disk to the hot one [1]. The duo acknowledge that this behavior will be difficult to reproduce in…
