摘要： A thermal management device for dissipating thermal energy from a secondary battery cell includes a first plate defining a first channel and a second channel spaced apart from the first channel, wherein the first plate further defines an inlet port in communication with the first channel and an outlet port in communication with the second channel and spaced opposite the inlet port. The device includes a second plate configured for thermal energy exchange with the cell and disposed in contact with the first plate to define a cross-flow channel, wherein the cross-flow channel interconnects the first and second channels. A thermal management system includes a cell having a first temperature, a fluid having a second temperature that is less than the first temperature, and the device. The fluid is conveyable from the inlet port to the outlet port via the cross-flow channel to thereby dissipate thermal energy from the cell.

摘要： An improved kinetic spray nozzle system design is disclosed. The nozzle includes an improved powder injector having an injector tube and a sleeve wherein the injector tube is received in the sleeve and secured to the sleeve. The powder injector further includes an air gap defined between an inner diameter of the sleeve and an outer diameter of the injector tube wherein the air gap is from 50 to 200 microns. The improved injector is capable of spraying a variety of powder materials including hard and “gummy” powders for without clogging for extended periods of time whereas under similar spray conditions previous designs became completely plugged within minutes. The improved injector design enabled the use of higher main gas temperatures to achieve improved coating formation and deposition efficiencies. Most importantly, the improved design makes it possible to use the kinetic spray system with a wide range of powder materials in a manufacturing setting without interruptions caused by powder injector clogging related problems.

摘要： A new gas collimator for use in a kinetic spray system is disclosed. The collimator reduces turbulence of the main gas and results in significant increases in the amount of particles deposited on a substrate using the system. Kinetic spray nozzles incorporating the new collimator also have significantly higher deposition efficiencies. The new collimator enables the main gas temperature to be reduced while permitting much higher depositions and deposition efficiencies compared to the prior art collimator. Also disclosed is a low pressure injection method for a kinetic spray system. The coaxial, low pressure injection method enables the use of low pressure powder feeders, which are low cost, technologically mature, and widely available commercially. The coaxial injection method overcomes several undesirable effects associated with prior art high pressure injection methods.
