Generally thicker walls slow down the transfer of heat, and if the material is a good thermal conductor that will increase the rate of transfer.
energy is transferred quickly when a conductor of heat is used but if an insulator is used and an increase in thickness, it is slower for thermal energy to transfer to a cooler side
Yes.
Computers and their components typically generate a lot of heat during their operation. To keep the computer running properly and to keep it from overheating, all computers have some sort of system cooling in place. Fans are by far the most common tool in the use of system cooling. Fans can be found in just about every computer and computer component. They are in the CPU, the GPU or the PCI slot. They come in a variety of sizes from 40 to 120 mm, although fans as large as 200mm are beginning to enter the market. Fans are usually used in PCs, desktops and in computing data centers. Another type of system cooling is conductive and radiative cooling. This is most often used in laptops, cooling hard drives and optical drives through having them make contact with the computer’s frame, which increases the surface over which heat is radiated. A less common type of cooling is liquid submersion cooling. The computer components are submerged in a thermally conductive liquid. Cooling is achieved when heat is exchanged passively between the liquid, the computer’s parts and the ambient air. Liquid used in this type of cooling must have low electrical conductivity in order not to interfere with the computer’s operation. Liquids used for this purpose usually have been manufactured for it specifically, although various types of oils can also be used. If a full-featured computer is not needed, there is a way to achieve system cooling through waste heat reduction. In an office setting, very basic computers can be set up, such as diskless workstations or thin clients. This reduces the need for a hard drive at each workstation, so less cooling is required overall. In addition, the workstations can be powered from an external power supply so the computer itself does not heat up. The type of system cooling you choose will partly depend on your needs and resources. While air cooling through the use of fans is by far the most popular method, depending on your circumstances, you may want to investigate alternatives as well.
There is a leak somewhere in the cooling system. Have the cooling system pressure tested for leaks.

Properties of the material such as thermal conductivity, specific heat, and emissivity, and the temperature of the surroundings.
Yes. It is called adiabatic heating & cooling.
When building a PC you will need to position the cooling fans. You should refer to the documentation to work out how to do this.
The long and short of measuring the electrical conductivity of elements involves little more than making a short piece of "wire" out of a given (pure) element and then applying a voltage and measuring the current. Take into account the external resistance, and the length, cross sectional area and temperature of the element and make some calculations. It's a little more involved with liquids, and tougher still with gaseous elements, but a conductor will "conduct" based on its composition, length, cross sectional area and temperature.

When a rectangular piece of metal is heated and then left to cool down to room temperature, the rate of cooling will depend on several factors, including the size and thickness of the metal, the material composition, and the environment in which it is located. In general, thinner pieces of metal will cool more quickly than thicker ones, and metals with a high thermal conductivity, such as copper or aluminum, will cool faster than those with lower conductivity, such as steel or iron. Additionally, the cooling rate may be affected by the presence of any insulating materials or coatings on the metal, as well as the temperature and humidity of the surrounding air. It is difficult to provide a specific estimate of how long it will take for a rectangular piece of metal to cool to room temperature, as this will depend on many variables. However, you can expect that the cooling process will take longer for larger or thicker pieces of metal, and that it may take several hours or even days for the metal to reach equilibrium with the surrounding environment.
Oil or similar is used as a cooling fluid in electrical transformer, because it is electrically insulating - which water is not. The figure of merit is the lack of conductivity.
Basalt is a rock formed from rapid cooling of lava or magma. The thickness of basalt depends on how much lava is present during cooling. Basalt can be anywhere from a few centimeters thick to many tens of meters thick.
When the wall thickness of the injection molding parts is not uniform, the thick part of the wall cools more slowly than the thin part, so the thick part of the wall produces shrinkage holes.It is theoretically difficult to eliminate shrinkage caused by uneven wall thickness, so uniform wall thickness should be made when designing parts. That is, the focus is on reducing the variation in wall thickness.
it means that the lava is cooling around the volcano and is building up
The only thing that I've heard of with "wet cooling" in, is a wet cooling tower. A Wet Cooling tower for the closed-circuit cooling of water where the water to be cooled comes into direct contact with the cooling air dissipating heat by evaporation and air heating. The air draught required for cooling can be induced by fans or by the natural effect of the stack of the cooling tower building (natural draught cooling tower).So I don't know if that answers your question or not, but i hope it helps...
It insulates the complex in the winter, and It provides passive cooling in the summer.
