    摘要: Fluid thermal management storage apparatuses and methods are disclosed herein. An example apparatus can include a dewar vessel having a heatsink mounted thereon. The dewar vessel can be configured to receive and retain a bag of whole blood. A thermoelectric sub-assembly is mounted to the heatsink, where the thermoelectric sub-assembly includes a solid-state thermoelectric element, a fan disposed below the solid-state thermoelectric element for circulating air within the dewar vessel, and a controller having a processor and memory. The processor executes instructions to maintain the bag of whole blood at a safe operational temperature for a period of time.
