  30. Serpentine Channel Performance

  31. Phase Change Materials • Incorporation of a heat storage capability in the temperature control system of an electronic module having a variable heat dissipation rate will allow for a smaller, less-power-consuming module cooler and better temperature stabilization. • Materials formulated to undergo phase transition at key temperatures can provide this load-leveling capability via the latent heat effect.

  33. PCM Options • Solid - Liquid Materials • Paraffins, non-paraffin organics, salt hydrates, metallics. • Solid - Solid Materials • Materials that undergo reversible solid-state phase transitions. • Organic Compounds, Metallic Oxides, Encapsulated S-L PCM’s • Latent heat comparable to S-L PCM’s • Packaging is easier

  34. Solid-Solid PCM-based Heat Exchangers • Passive Heat Storage Mechanisms (all) • Heat exchangers that are insensitive to heat load variations • High-performance (thermally conductive solids or high-heat-flux convection and radiation surfaces) through metalization. • Near Ambient Operating Temperatures • -15oC < Ttr <150oC. • Inexpensive net-shape manufacture • Possible complex heat exchanger shapes • Operation is independent of ambient pressure or system orientation.
