Heat exchange is fundamental in any thermodynamic cycle used for power generation and more generally energy conversion/storage.
µCD plates and cores can be used in many heat transfer applications:
- Quasi-isothermal cold plates for battery cooling: plates with optimized micro-channel paths ensure heat transfer without hot spots on
batteries, with no dimensional constraints
- Heat exchangers for thermodynamic cycles: high pressure and vibrations resistant cores for high efficiency heat transfer between liquids
and gases
- CO2-based energy storage devices
- Isothermal heat transfer with heat pipes
