HEAT MANAGEMENT [14 records]

Record 1 2025-02-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Environmental Management
  • Saving and Consumption
  • Economic and Industrial Sociology
CONT

Different business activities require the production of vast quantities of energy which is then often wasted. According to the French environment and energy management agency..., 109. 5 terawatt hours(TWh) of heat are discarded by the industrial sector. This represents 36% of its fuel consumption. Recovering this heat is a challenge that cannot be ignored. Recovered energy can be the perfect supplement to renewable energy.

StratSat provides a geo-stationary platform at 20 km altitude capable of remaining on-station for up to five years. Payloads include high speed Internet services, direct broadcast TV, mobile telecommunication, etc. The envelope operates as a super-pressure hull(i. e. with no ballonet pressure control system). The hull will be of laminated fabric construction with Tedlar/Teflon, helium/weather barrier developed from AT-10/04. Multiple catenary curtain system supporting a payload module enclosed completely by the envelope. [The] payload module... comprises a single structural module with an externally mounted payload/mission system. The payload module provides a home for all of the airship's primary systems except for the propulsion system. The systems are close packed within the highly insulated module ensuring efficient heat and energy management. The payload module is pendulum stabilised within the envelope. The solar array provides the sole source of renewable energy for the airship. The array is placed over the upper quarter of the hull and extends over approximately three-quarters of the length of the craft. The array can be realigned to the daily sun location/angle by the roll rotation of the whole airship. The energy collected by the solar array is stored for use during the night in the series of batteries. Located in the stored for use during the night in a series of batteries. Located in the payload module, the batteries run the propulsion system, airship services and provide power to the mission system for up to 14 hours(during winter). The airship is propelled and steered by means of a ’Contra-Rotating Coned Rotor’ mounted on a tailcone at the rear of the envelope, as a part of a compound propulsion system. The unit provides longitudinal thrust(to counter the prevailing stratospheric winds) and lateral force(for manoeuvering) to enable the airship to hold station within a 1 km cube. The airship will be equipped with a multi-channel Flight Control Sy

Subject field(s)
  • Atomic Physics
DEF

A solid-liquid composite material consisting of solid nanoparticles or nanofibers, with sizes typically of 1-100 nm, suspended in liquid.

CONT

Cooling is one of the most important technical challenges facing many diverse industries... The conventional method for increasing heat dissipation is to increase the area available for exchanging heat with a heat transfer fluid. However, this approach requires an undesirable increase in the thermal management system's size... The novel concept of ’nanofluids’ – heat transfer fluids containing suspensions of nanoparticles – has been proposed as a means of meeting these challenges.

Subject field(s)
  • Fuel Cells (Electr.)
CONT

Water and heat management are also concerns with PEM [proton exchange membrane] fuel cells. Several water molecules accompany each proton transported through the membrane from the anode to the cathode, and so a significant fraction of the energy from the fuel must go into recirculating the water back to the anode. Also, the heat generated within the fuel cell must be dissipated...

Domaine(s)
  • Piles à combustible (Électricité)
CONT

Gestion thermique : il existe deux sources de chaleur dans une pile à combustible : l'empilement [...] [et] le brûleur du reformeur (pour les piles à reformage externe). [...] Un système optimisé pour un rendement électrique utilise ces sources de chaleur au maximum pour les procédés internes du système. L'utilisation de la chaleur dans le système est d'autant plus facile que la température de fonctionnement est élevée.

CONT

Gestion de la chaleur : L'énergie résiduelle libérée par la réaction électrochimique de la pile à combustible est contrôlée pour un rendement optimal et une efficacité accrue. [...] Les ingénieurs ont conçu des usines qui recyclent la chaleur produite pendant tous les procédés, tant chimiques qu'électrochimiques. La chaleur est recueillie et distribuée là où elle est nécessaire : processeur de quantité de carburant (le reformage de la chaleur est une réaction endothermique), épurateur de gaz (la conversion catalytique est une réaction endothermique), divers échangeurs de chaleur qui peuvent réchauffer ou refroidir les fluides ou les gaz. La chaleur excédentaire peut être utilisée pour fournir de l'air chaud ou de la chaleur chaude à l'utilisateur. Elle peut même être utilisée dans des systèmes de conditionnement d'air utilisant des refroidisseurs d'absorption.

The Avionics Air Assembly(AAA) is a central component in U. S. rack equipment thermal management. The AAA provides the capability to remove the rack airborne sensible heat loads and transfer them to the Internal Thermal Control System(ITCS). It receives on/off signals and electable speed commands from a command interface and provides two temperature signals and a speed feedback signal. Ambient rack air is drawn into the AAA via an internal fan, cooled with an air/liquid heat exchanger and then redistributed within the rack.

CONT

The Avionics Air Assembly (AAA), which interfaces with the temperature cooling loop, converts cool water to cool air, and circulates the cooled air through the rack and past the racks’ smoke detector. The AAA can cool up to 1200 W of payload waste heat.

Thermal Management. A moderate-temperature water loop is provided via a 1. 3 cm(0. 5 in) line with a quick-disconnect to each ISPR [International Standard Payload Rack] at an inlet temperature range of 16-24°C(61-75°F). The water is circulated through heat exchangers and stainless steel cold plates to allow thermal conditioning of the internal payload hardware. The water flow is controlled within the U. S. Lab and the JEM [Japanese Experiment Module] to optimize the heat rejection efficiencies of the system. The maximum return water temperature is 49°C(120°F). Inside a payload rack, an avionics air/heat exchanger assembly can be connected to the loop to remove up to 1200 W by circulating air.
