SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR THERMAL MANAGEMENT OF ELECTRONIC DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18120861 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR THERMAL MANAGEMENT OF ELECTRONIC DEVICES
The abstract describes a thermal management device that includes a body, a fluid movement structure, and a movement mechanism. The body receives heat from a heat-generating component, while the fluid movement structure directs fluid flow of a working fluid to transfer heat. The movement mechanism moves the fluid movement structure relative to the body.
- Body receives heat from a heat-generating component.
- Fluid movement structure directs fluid flow of a working fluid.
- Body transfers heat to the working fluid.
- Movement mechanism moves the fluid movement structure relative to the body.
Potential Applications: - Cooling systems for electronic devices - Thermal management in automotive applications - HVAC systems in buildings
Problems Solved: - Efficient heat transfer from heat-generating components - Control of fluid flow for optimal cooling
Benefits: - Improved thermal performance - Increased longevity of components - Energy efficiency
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Thermal Management Solutions for Electronics" This technology can be used in various industries such as electronics, automotive, and HVAC for efficient heat dissipation and temperature control.
Questions about Thermal Management Device: 1. How does the movement mechanism enhance the efficiency of heat transfer? The movement mechanism ensures that the fluid movement structure directs the working fluid effectively, optimizing heat transfer.
2. What are the potential cost savings associated with implementing this thermal management device? By improving thermal performance and energy efficiency, this device can lead to reduced operating costs and maintenance expenses.
Original Abstract Submitted
A thermal management device includes a body, a fluid movement structure, and a movement mechanism. The body is configured to receive heat from a heat-generating component at a proximal surface, and the fluid movement structure is on a distal surface of the body that is distal to the proximal surface, wherein the fluid movement structure is configured to direct fluid flow of a working fluid and the body is configured to transfer heat to the working fluid. The movement mechanism is configured to move the fluid movement structure relative to the body.
