Abstract:Camouflage devices have attracted intensive research interest for their significant applications. However, most camouflage devices are specifically designed according to target heat sources. Here, by applying the transformation thermotics approach, we develop a coordinate transformation, and design an unspecific camouflage device which can camouflage arbitrary heat sources into a circular one with an anisotropic shell. We verify the ability of our unspecific camouflage device with both steady and transient simulations. We also find the “apparent negative thermal conductivity” under certain conditions without violating the second law of thermodynamics. To ensure the feasibility, we further put forward the effective medium approximation for sample fabrication, and only two natural materials are required. Our results have relevance to the different applications of infrared misleading, uniform heating, and so on; they may also provide guidance to the research on other diffusive fields, such as magnetostatic and electrostatic fields.
Keywords:Heat conduction  Heat source  Thermal camouflage  Thermal metamaterial
