Researchers at the Manisa Celal Bayar University in Turkey have proposed using a skived-type aluminum heat sink (HS) to cool insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) arrays in solar PV inverters.

The natural convection cooling loops effectively enhance the electrical efficiency of the floating photovoltaic panels by reducing the photovoltaic cell temperature from 318.8 Kelvin to 315.3 Kelvin.

Amsterdam – June 25, 2024 – Thermal management company Asperitas today launched Direct Forced Convection technology, designed to enable scale, power and reliability across multiple workloads, ...

This weight reduction, combined with a slimmer profile and natural convection/radiation cooling that dissipates up to 22 W at +55 degrees C in stagnant (non-flowing) air, or at up to 71 degrees C with ...

When you apply high voltage, the air around the actuator ionizes, creating plasma just above the dielectric surface. This can ...

Forced-air cooling analysis does not apply only to electronics. Living creatures also experience it via the wind-chill effect (although the wind is, of course, a natural phenomenon). You would think ...

The inverters are an addition to the company’s line of power conversion products that are cooled by natural air convection; no forced air or attachment to a heatsinking surface is required. Cooling is ...

Even with all the hype about forced convection cooling, many applications in the electronics cooling industry still depend on natural convection cooling. Christopher A. Soule, Thermshield, LLC ...

Under natural convection (laminar flow) we have the following defining equations (MKS units): Nu = 3.5 + 0.5 × Gr ¼ (30) Where: Where g = 9.8 (acceleration due to gravity in m/s 2) ...
