A new way to cool magnets to the extremely low temperatures needed for MRI machines may hold the answer to overcoming the effects of the increasing global helium shortage. Well-known for its use in party balloons, helium is also used in the cooling of superconducting magnets, with the main commercial application being in MRI (magnetic resonant imaging) scanners and particle … [Read more...]
Multi-Stage Cooling Technology Removes Heat from ICT Equipment in Server Rooms
NEC Corporation, a provider of IT, network and communications products and solutions, has announced the development of a new highly-efficient, multi-stage cooling technology that effectively removes the heat generated by ICT equipment mounted on racks installed in data centers. The new cooling technology utilizes a phase change cooling technology previously developed by NEC … [Read more...]
NASA Selects Proposals for Future Spacecraft Thermal Control Systems
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...]
