Self-Ventilating Heat Exchanger Cools Sealed Compartments without Contamination
AMETEK Rotron has introduced the new Discus self-ventilating heat exchanger designed to cool sealed airborne or ground-based electronic and optical compartments without introducing contaminated external air. Ideal for pod-mounted airborne optical systems, the Discus can also be used to cool other aircraft, helicopter, drone and ground-based electronics requiring air … [Read more...]
Microchips Tolerate Extreme Temperatures in Industrial Applications
German scientists have successfully fabricated compact microchips able to tolerate temperatures up to 300°C in an achievement that could have significant implications for the geothermal and oil production industries. Drill bits and borehole probes employed in the geothermal industry are fitted with a range of sensors and control mechanisms in order to record and analyze … [Read more...]
Prehistoric Cave Paint to Shield Solar Spacecraft
A European spacecraft scheduled for launch towards the sun in 2017 will be shielded from extreme temperatures by a type of paint once used in prehistoric cave art. Carrying instruments to perform high-resolution imaging of the sun, the European Space Agency’s Solar Orbiter will travel as close as 42 million kilometers, or a little more than a quarter of the distance to Earth, … [Read more...]
Liquid Helium Cools Superconductive Cables
Scientists at Florida State University have used helium gas to cool superconductive cables in a breakthrough that could enable the development of next-generation power systems for future naval ships with advanced weapons systems. The discovery was made as part of a research project examining the use of high-conductivity electrical cables in power applications for naval vessels … [Read more...]
