摘要:
A thermal management system for a high density power source is disclosed. The system includes a housing with an interior divided into first and second compartments. The first compartment is configured and adapted to house at least one electrical battery and the second compartment defines a coolant reservoir. A fluid release member connects the first and second compartments. Upon the first compartment reaching a temperature in excess of a predetermined limit, the fluid release member releases coolant form the second compartment into the first compartment to cool the at least one battery within the first compartment.
摘要:
A system for providing heating and cooling to an aircraft has a single compressor for compressing and heating a fluid, a first zone and a second zone. The first zone has a first expansion valve without a condenser and a first heat exchanger removing heat from or adding heat to the first zone. The compressed fluid passes through the first zone and the first expansion valve. The second zone requires cooling and has a second expansion valve without a condenser and a second heat exchanger for removing heat from the zone. The compressed fluid passes through the second expansion valve after going through the first expansion valve and before passing through the second heat exchanger.
摘要:
A cooling assembly comprises an electronic component, a thermal spreader, a cold plate, and a phase change thermal capacitor. The thermal spreader conducts heat freely between the electronic component, the phase change thermal capacitor, and the cold plate. The cold plate dissipates heat. The phase change thermal capacitor stores undissipated heat in a phase transition of a phase change material.

摘要:
An aircraft cooling system includes a refrigerant cycle including a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, and a compressor. A component of the aircraft is in thermal communication with the first heat exchanger. A heat sink fluid passes through the second heat exchanger to absorb heat from the refrigerant cycle. A hydraulic motor is mechanically connected with the compressor and powered by the heat sink fluid, which is circulated by a pump.

摘要:
A cooling system with a compression cooling cycle for a working fluid that passes an expendable fluid through a warm side heat exchanger for the cooling system to cause the expendable fluid to vaporise and thus absorb heat from the working fluid by way of latent heat or enthalpy of vaporisation and then running the vaporised expendable through a turbine that drives a compressor for the cooling system.
摘要:
An air cycle system for a gas turbine engine includes a compressor, a turbine and a heat exchanger fluidly connected between the compressor and the turbine. A fluid source communicates a fluid through the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger exchanges heat between the fluid and an airflow communicated through the heat exchanger from the compressor to provide a conditioned airflow.
