We propose a simple theoretical calculation scheme based on the phenomenological Fourier heat-flow formalism to study thermal transport behaviors in nanoscale copper rods. The axial heat transport is characterized by a new super-oscillatory feature along with small-amplitude heat spikes. It is anticipated that these atypical spikes are generated by accumulation of localized “hotspots” that have low heat dissipation characteristics. In the case of radial transport, we witness the existence of three distinct heat regimes owing to buildup of hot electrons after experiencing ballistic scattering events. It is important to note that, even though the nanorod diameter is comparable to or smaller than the electron mean free path length, λmfp ∼ 30 nm; multiple ballistic electronic scattering from the outer surface of the nanorods and subsequent accrual into several layers through secondary collisional events has led to concentric heat zones. The hotspots disappear when the nanorod diameter exceeds λmfp.
