Conventional heat sinks can no longer properly cool high-power electronic devices. Heat pipes more effectively transfer heat away from these devices, meeting the high-power cooling needs. Heat-pipe ...

A heat pipe is a two-phase device that has excellent heat transfer capabilities. It can transfer heat over long distances with minimum temperature drops and no need for external power. In our ...

Managing the heat generated by components has always been an important element of electronic design. It is even more true today as power densities continue to increase and individual components such ...

The heat generated from large power semiconductors such as IGBTs, diodes, or thyristors can be as high as several kilowatts. While conventional extruded heat sinks have been one of the most widely ...

Although most of the technology details for the Curiosity Rover are proprietary, we can guess that various heat-pipes of sorts may be on the Rover on Mars because of the efficiency and effectiveness ...

A team engineers created a twisty high-temperature heat exchanger that outperformed a traditional straight channel design in heat transfer, power density and effectiveness and used an innovative ...
