At the recent Consumer Electronics Show, Haier America introduced its “new alternative cooling system for wine cellars,” as reported by DigitalTrends.com. This technology “couples a solid-state chip that is 25 times lighter and 100 times smaller than other cooling compressors with H20/C02 heat exchange technology,” according to DigitalTrends.com. DigitalTrends.com also says … [Read more...]
New Cooler Can Advance Heat Exchanger Technology
Recently, researchers at the Energy Department’s Sandia National Laboratories have developed an innovative new air-cooling technology called the Sandia Cooler. “The Sandia Cooler combines a fan and a finned metal heat sink into a single element called a heat-sink-impeller in which the fins of the heat sink rotate, improving heat transfer by a factor of ten,” reports … [Read more...]
Scientists Discover Coulomb Interactions Key to Heat Dissipation
An international team of researchers, lead by a team at the University of Michigan, have discovered that Coulomb Interactions dissipate heat better than expected. “The scientists demonstrated that the electrostatic interactions between electrically charged particles — known as Coulomb interactions — in different layers of multi-layered graphene offers a key mechanism for … [Read more...]
Solution to Heat Transfer in Phase Change Materials Unveiled
Dr. Patrick Shamberger, assistant professor at Texas A&M University, has found an “analytical solution to heat transfer in PCMs (Phase Change Materials) used in thermal energy storage and has identified the relative role of thermo-physical properties of different materials,” according to Phys.org. Shamberger is one of the lead researchers studying high-energy storage … [Read more...]
Thermal Invisibility Cloak Improves Heat Distribution in Electronics
A team of researchers from the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore has developed a thermal invisibility cloak that would improve heat distribution in electronic devices by redirecting incoming heat. The cloaks are capable of guiding heat around a hidden object, thus resulting in complete thermal invisibility. “Based on carefully engineered metamaterials – … [Read more...]
