Abstract: A particle bed can be effectively [`]fluidised' by means of a vibrating diaphragm. Such beds of vibrating particles (whether in nominally-still air or even in a vacuum) exhibit high thermal-conductances, which are comparable with those of air-fludised beds. The mechanically-stimulated beds have potential applications as thermal switches.
