NASA has selected eight proposals to develop advanced thermal control system technologies for future spacecraft as part of its Game Changing Development Program (GCD). The program was created to investigate novel ideals and approaches to protect spacecraft and the astronauts within while enabling them to remain in space for longer periods of time. The selected proposals will … [Read more...]
Dielectric Heat Transfer Fluid Line Expanded
DSI Ventures, Inc., a developer of biodegradable lubricants and electrical insulating products, has announced the expansion of its OptiCool line of dielectric heat transfer fluids. Introduced in 2001, OptiCool fluids are made from synthetic paraffin hydrocarbons, and are used to cool and insulate computer services, high-torque DC motors, power electronics and avionics. “We … [Read more...]
Heat Exchanger Research Could Lead to Better Liquid Cooling in Aerospace, Automotive, Defense Applications
A New Mexico State University assistant professor is investigating methods of increasing heat exchanger efficiency that could enable space missions to remain in orbit for longer periods of time and lead to better automotive, defense, data center and power generation thermal management systems. “The problem we are addressing is how to extend NASA space missions,” Krishna Kota, … [Read more...]
IEC 62610-4 ed1.0: Cooling Performance Tests for Water-Supplied Heat Exchangers in Electronic Cabinets
From the International Electrotechnical Commission Webstore: “IEC 62610-4:2013 specifies the test setup and test parameters for water-supplied heat exchangers within single electronic cabinet configurations. The tests are focused on cabinets for the installation of high power dissipation electronic equipment. The cabinets concerned are from the IEC 60297 (19 in) and IEC 60917 … [Read more...]
NASA Astronaut Releases Video on Helmet Leak
Several weeks after NASA aborted a spacewalk outside the International Space Station following a report of a water leak inside Italian astronaut Luca Parmitano’s helmet, Parmitano’s spacewalk partner has released a two-part video explaining the origin of the leak. The July 16 spacewalk was aborted approximately an hour-and-a-half into what was to be a six-hour spacewalk to … [Read more...]
